PREFACE. 


About  nine  years  ago  the  writer  of  this  History  was 
induced  to  add  to  the  volume  published  by  Judge  Whit- 
man of  Portland,  Me.,  a  record  of  the  descendants  of  Rev, 
Samuel  Whitman  of  Farmington,  Conn.  Gradually  the 
scope  of  the  work  was  extended,  until  this  volume  is  pre- 
sented as  the  result  of  his  labors. 

« 

The  writer  has  tabulated  the  various  families  in  a 
different  form  from  the  one  usually  employed :  he  has 
followed  the  traditional  system  of  cross  references  down  to 
the  fifth  generation,  but  from  that  point,  as  will  readily  be 
seen,  has  brought  each  line  by  itself  down  to  date.  For 
several  reasons,  the  principal  one  being  that  with  that 
generation  a  general  breaking  up  of  the  various  branches 
took  place,  he  has  taken  this  period  as  a  dividing  point, 
and  for  the  same  reasons  has  continued  the  female  lines 
from  the  same  generation. 

Since  the  first  part  of  the  work  went  to  press  some  two 
years  ago,  information  has  been  received  that  seems  to 
indicate  that  the  family  resided  in  both  the  counties  of 
Bucks  and  Herts. 

Like  many  others,  the  writer  was  misled  by  the  desig- 
nation of  one  of  the  original  quarters  of  New  Haven, 
Conn.,  as  the  *'  Herefordshire  Quarter."  Data  collected 
from  many  independent  sources  conclusively  prove  that 
this  was  a  manifest  error  for  Hertfordshire. 


VI  PREFACE. 


The  record  as  contained  in  Hutton  shows  that  "  Zacha- 
ria  Whitman  "  and  his  wife  Sara  sailed  from  London,  Sept. 
19,  1635.  By  the  kindness  of  Capt.  Charles  Hervey 
Townshend  of  New  Haven,  Conn.,  investigation  made 
in  England  duHng  February  and  March  of  this  year  have 
brought  to  light  the  marriage  of  a  "  Zaccharie  Whitman  " 
to  Sarah,  daughter  of  Richard  and  Martha  (Turner) 
Biscoe,  at  Chesham,  Co.  Bucks,  June  10,  1630;  Sarah 
-Biscoe  was  baptized  at  Chesham,  Nov.  9,  1606.  An 
incomplete  search  among  the  Co.  Bucks  records  shows  that 
one  Henry  Whitman  of  Lee  or  Lye  made  his  will,  Jan. 
10,  1549,  which  document  was  probated  May  3,  1549. 
He  mentions  the  following  children :  William,  Henry, 
Thomas,  Richard,  Mary,  Edward,  Agnes,  Joan,  Eleanor, 
Alice,  Cecilia,  and  divides  his  property  among  them  as 
will  be  seen  by  the  wills  themselves  as  contained  in  the 
Appendix,  pages  1062-63. 

Edward,  one  of  the  sons,  evidently  settled  at  Albury, 
West  Herts,  while  the  sons  Thomas  and  Henry  remained 
at  Lee.  Unfortunately  the  Parish  records  of  Lee  prior  to 
1679  are  lost.  The  Parish  records  of  Albury  are  also  lost 
prior  to  1693.  A  search  from  1693-1715  disclosed  the 
fact  that  during  that  period  a  family  of  Whitmans  resided 
in  the  Parish.  An  old  resident  of  Albury  states  that  the 
farm  house  opposite  the  church-yard  gate  was  occupied 
by  a  family  of  Whitmans,  who  moved  away  some  time 
about  1750.  There  are  still  persons  of  the  name  of  Whit- 
man residing  in  both  the  counties  of  Bucks  and  Herts,  but 
time  has  not  permitted  any  effort  to  interview  them.  A 
glance  at  a  map  will  show  the  close  vicinity  of  Missenden, 
Chesham,  Lee  and  Albury, 

The  Milford  records  show  that  Nathaniel  Biscoe  or 
Briscoe,  Jr.,  a  cousin  of  Sarah  Biscoe,  was  among  the  early 
settlers,  thus  further  identifying  "  Zachariah  Whitman  "  of 
Milford  with  the  "  Zaccharie "  of  the  Chesham  marriage. 
A  large  number  of  the  Milford  settlers  are  also  proven  to

have  come  from  this  immediate  vicinity  in  Bucks  and 
Herts.  It  is  a  source  of  regret  that  the  above  facts  have 
been  received  at  so  late  a  date  that  further  -investigation 
has  been  impossible  without  delaying  the  publication  of 
the  History  to  an  indefinite  period. 

The  writer,  to  secure  accuracy,  has,  wherever  possible, 
submitted  the  printed  proofs  to  the  various  families,  but 
fears  that  in  spite  of  this  precaution  many  errors  of  date 
may  have  been  overlooked.  But  absolute  accuracy  has 
seldom  been  attained  in  a  work  of  this  character,  and  for 
such  mistakes  as  may  have  occurred  indulgence  is  asked. 

While  it  will  be  impossible  to  express  except  in  a  gen- 
eral way  the  thanks  of  the  writer  for  the  aid  he  has 
received  from  all  sources,  especial  notice  should  be  made 
of  the  services  rendered  by  Mr.  Charles  B.  Whitman  of 
So.  Boston,  Mass.,  Mr.  Phineas  Whitman  and  Mr.  John  W. 
Whitman  of  Nova  Scotia,  and  Mr.  F.  E.  Whitman  of 
Amherst,  Mass. 

The  Coat  of  Arms  was  obtained  from  lliomas  Culleton 
of  London,  a  well-known  genealogist.  It  has  been  impos- 
sible to  procure  absolute  proof  of  the  right  of  this  family 
to  use  the  same.  A  similar  shield  with  varying  crests  but 
the  same  motto  has,  however,  been  in  the  possession  of 
several  branches  since  the  latter  part  of  the  last  century. 
This  fact  has  induced  the  writer  to  insert  the  plate,  hoping 
that  at  some  future  time  more  absolute  proof  can  be 
obtained. 

The  following  is  the  preface  to  the  pamphlet  published 
by  the  Hon.  Ezekiel  Whitman  of  Portland,  Me.,  and  is 
inserted  not  only  that  it  may  be  preserved,  but  as  con- 
taining sentiments  worthy  of  remembrance  : 

"  The  following  sketches  are  the  result  of  examinations 
'•  and  enquiries  made,  from  time  to  time,  as  opportunities 
"  occurred  for  the  purpose.  They  are  designed  to  gratify 
"such  of  the  posterity  of  John  Whitman  as  have  any 
"  degree  of  curiosity  leading  them  to  an  enquiry  after  their 


Vlll  PREFACE. 


"  origin.  Such  curiosity  seems  to  be  natural,  and,  at  the 
"  same  time,  indicative  of  a  respectful  regard  to  those  but 
"  for  whom  we  should  not  have  existed.  If  so  fortunate  as 
"  to  find  them  worthy  and  respectable  the  emotion  excited 
"  is  agreeable ;  and  the  mind  delights  to  dwell  in  contem- 
"  plation  upon  the  incidents  of  their  lives.  Biography  is  at 
"  all  times  pleasing  and  the  source  of  valuable  instruction. 
"  How  much  more  so  when  the  subject  is  a  relative  or  an 
"  immediate  ancestor. 

"  The  posterity  of  John  Whitman,  who,  by  way  of  dis- 
"  tinction  in  these  sketches,  will  often  be  denominated  the 
"  Ancestor,  will  seldom  find  occasion  to  blush  upon  look- 
"  ing  back  upon  the  past  lives  of  those  from  whom  they 
"  have  derived  their  origin.  Fortunate,  indeed,  may  the 
"  generations  now  in  being  esteem  themselves,  if  they  can 
"  be  sure  to  bequeath  to  their  posterity  an  equal  source  of 
"  felicitation. 

"A  speculation  of  this  kind  may,  by  many,  be  deemed 
''unprofitable.  Such,  however,  are  but  superficial  ob- 
"  servers.  No  virtuously  disposed  mind  can  look  back 
"  upon  a  long  line  of  truly  venerable  ancestors  without 
"feeling  his  motive  to  a  virtuous  life  strengthened.  He 
"  can  scarcely  help  feeling  that  it  is  not  for  him  to  be  the 
"  first  to  bring  disgrace  upon  his  lineage.  It  will,  more- 
"  over,  lead  him  to  reflect  that  his  posterity  also  will  be 
"looking  back  and  comparing  his  life  with  that  of  his 
"  progenitors.  And  who  in  such  case  can  fail  to  feel  as  a 
"father  in  the  presence  of  his  off'spring?  And  that  sad 
"  indeed  would  it  be  to  find  them  crimsoned  with  shame 
"  at  witnessing  in  him  a  mortifying  exemplar. 

"  The  following  sketches  are  confined  principally  to  the 
"  four  first  generations,  including  the  common  ancestor. 
"  Under  each  member  of  the  fourth  generation,  however, 
"  will  be  found  a  genealogical  statement  of  his  posterity 
"  for  one  or  more  generations  further.  Many  errors  will 
"  doubtless  be  discovered,  especially  as  to  the  later  genera-

"  tions.  Those  now  in  being  are  so  numerous  and  so 
"  much  scattered,  that  full  and  distinct  information  is  not 
"  easy  to  be  obtained  concerning  them.  As  it  respects  the 
"  female  branches,  it  has  not  been  practicable  to  trace  their 
"  descendants  in  any  instance  to  any  considerable  extent." 

An  almost  complete  record  has  been  obtained  of  the 
male  descendants  of  all  of  the  sons  of  the  Ancestor  except 
John^.  Continued  and  careful  investigation  has,  however, 
failed  to  complete  in  this  line  the  families  of  John^,  Jesse^, 
SamueP  and  DanieP. 

It  is  hoped  that  the  reward  of  his  labors  will  be  received 
in  the  indulgence  and  favorable  commendation  of  the 
readers.

New  Haven,  July,  1889. 


INTEODUCTIOJ^. 


A  SEARCH  among  the  New  England  records  seems  to 
indicate  that  but  seven  persons  bearing  the  name  of 
Whitman  emigrated  to  America  prior  to  1680  ;  these  are  : 

1.  John  Whitman,  the  Ancestor. 

2.  Zachariah  Whitman,  a  brother  of  the  Ancestor. 
According  to  Hutton  he  came  in  the  "  ship  Truelove, 
Jo.  Gibbs,  Master,"  leaving  London,  Sept.  19,  1635. 
The  ship's  register  give  the  names  of  "  Zacharia  Whit- 
man," aged  40 ;  "  Sara  Whitman,"  aged  25  ;  "  Zaeha 
Whitman,"  aged  2^  ;  the  child  probably  died  soon  after 
his  arrival,  as  no  mention  is  afterwards  made  of  him. 
Zachariah  settled  first  in  Dorchester.  The  Dorchester 
records  show  that  Jan.  16,  1636,  "Zachariah  Whiteman 
and  Henry  Withington  "  were  ordered  "  to  vew  the  pale  in 
the  feild  next  to  their  houses."  In  the  list  of  allotments 
of  pasture  to  Dorchester  citizens,  under  date  of  March  18, 
1637/8,  "Mr.  Whitman"  was  allowed  "  13^  akers  on  the 
necke;"  also  "13^  akers  of  the  Cowes  pasture;"  his 
name  appears  third  on  the  list,  only  preceded  by  those  of 
"Mr.  Stoughton"  and  "Mr.  Glover;"  his  position  on  this 
list,  together  with  the  prefix  of  "  Mr.,"  indicate  that  he  was 
a  man  of  means  and  position.  The  early  settlement  of 
the  New  Haven  Colony  was  mostly  by  Dorchester  people, 
who  sailed  from  Boston,  March  30,  1638;  their  first  Sun- 
day, April  18,  was  observed  by  Mr.  Davenport  preaching 


XU  INTRODUCTION, 

in  the  morning  and  Mr.  Prudden  in  the  afternoon.  Some 
differences  soon  occurred  in  the  colony  between  the  friends 
of  Mr.  Davenport  and  Mr.  Prudden,  which  occasioned  the 
separation  of  the  followers  of  the  latter  gentleman,  and 
although  they  were  all  given  allotments  of  lands  in  the 
so-called  "  Hertfordshire  quarter,"  still  they  seem  to  have 
moved  in  a  body  .to  their  new  settlement  of  Milford.  This 
purchase  was  made  from  the  Indians,  Feb.  12,  1639,  the 
deed  being  taken  by  William  Fowler,  Edmund  Tapp, 
Zachariah  Whitman,  Benjamin  Fenn  and  Alexander  Bryan 
in  trust  for  the  planters.  The  first  enrollment  was  made 
Nov.  29,  1639,  Zachariah  Whitman  heading  the  list. 

The  church  records  of  Milford  contain  the  following 
entry  in  the  handwriting  of  Mr.  Prudden :  "At  Milford, 
I,  Peter  Prudden,  was  called  to  ye  office  of  a  Pastour  in 
this  Church,  and  ordained  at  New  Haven  by  Zachariah 
Whitman,  William  Fowler,  Edmund  Tapp,  designated  by 
ye  Church  for  that  purpose,  Zachariah  Whitman  being  ye 
Moderator  for  that  meeting,  in  a  day  of  solemn  humiliation, 
upon  ye  3'"**  Saturday  in  April,  being,  I  remember,  ye 
18*^day  of  April,  1640." 

At  a  previous  meeting,  held  in  New  Haven,  Aug.  22, 
1639,  Zachariah  Whitman  had  been  chosen  one  of  the 
"  seven  pillars  "  of  the  Milford  Church. 

In  the  list  of  Milord  planters,  made  in  1643,  the  family 
of  Zachariah  Whitman  was  entered  as  comprising  two 
persons  and  "  800  estates." 

June  26,  1645,  Zachariah  Whitman  was  ordained 
"  Ruling  Elder,"  which  position  he  retained  till  his  death, 
as  the  records  show  that  the  second  minister,  Mr.  Ro^er 
Newton,  was  installed,  Aug.  22,  1660,  by  "  Elder  Whit- 
man "  and  deacon  John  Fletcher  and  Robert  Treat,  Esq. 

He  was  chosen  a  delegate  to  the  "  General  Court,"  held 
April  3,  1644. 

In  the  original  plan  of  New  Haven,  made  1641,  Mr. 
Whitman  was  allotted  a  plot  of  ground  in  the  "Hertford- 


INTRODUCTION.  xiii 

shire  quarter,"  now  the  S.  W.  corner  of  Chapel  and  College 
streets;  he  retained  his  interest  in  this  plot  till  1647,  when 
he  transferred  it  to  Mr.  Bracey. 

He  d.  April  23,  1663;  his  wife  d.  (buried  Jan.  2, 
1670/71)  leaving  a  nuncupative  will,  in  which  she  mentions 
her  "  cousins,"  George  Clark,  John  Streame,  Zachary 
Whitman ;  the  inventory  amounted  to  £359  The  fol- 
lowing copy  of  the  will  of  Zachariah  Whitman  was 
obtained  from  the  Probate  records  in  New  Haven  :

3.  The  name  of  Henry  Whitman  appears  among  the 
early  proprietors  of  Weymouth,  in  1651  receiving  32  lots; 
there  is,  however,  but  this  single  reference,  but  whether  it 
was  an  error  of  record,  or  he  d.  without  issue  soon  after, 
is  unknown. 


XIV  INTEODUCTION. 

4.  In  the  list  of  persons  made  free,  May  19,  1680,  is  the 
name  of  Abraham  Whitman  of  Weymouth ;  this  is  also  an 
isolated  entry,  and  the  name  does  not  again  occur. 

5.  Hutton  mentions  among  the  passengers  by  the  ship 
"Abigail,"  June  29,  1635,  the  names  of  "Robert  White- 
man"  and  wife  "  Susan;"  he  was  one  of  the  early  settlers 
of  Essex  and  Old  Norfolk,  and,  1641,  appears  as  one  of 
the  common  proprietors  of  Ipswich.  At  a  meeting  of  the 
General  Court,  held  May  6,  1646,  Robert  Whitman  of 
Ipswich  was  excused  from  guard  duty  on  account  of  old 
age.  Judge  Whitman  states  that  his  name  appears  as  one 
of  the  proprietors  of  Ipswich  as  late  as  1679 ;  he  also 
states  that  he  was  illiterate,  as  he  executed  several  convey- 
ances by  making  his  mark. 

Robert  left  a  large  number  of  descendants,  among  whom 
the  surname  of  "  Davis  "  was  of  frequent  occurrence  ;  many 
of  them  settled  in  Boston,  and  followed  the  trade  of 
caulker.  The  early  interments,  in  the  "  Copps  Hill  Bury- 
ing Ground,"  of  persons  by  the  name  of  Whitman,  were 
evidently  of  this  family ;  several  Whitmans  appear  on  the 
records  of  Hingham  that  were  probably  also  of  this  branch. 
The  last  "  Davis  Whitman  "  d.  without  male  issue  at  Lan- 
caster, Mass.,  1844,  aged  82,  where  for  many  years  he  had 
held  the  office  of  Town  Clerk  and  had  been  active  in  the 
government  of  the  town.  The  writer  has  found  no  others 
who  could  be  traced  back  to  this  Robert. 

6.  The  name  of  "  Valentine  Whitman "  occurs  among 
the  first  settlers  of  Providence,  R.  I. ;  he  is  mentioned  as 
acting  as  interpreter  to  the  Indians;  he  d.  Jan.  26,  1701, 
having  had,  according  to  Providence  records,  three  daugh- 
ters and  one  son,  Valentine,  Jr.  From  this  family  are 
descended  nearly  all  those  persons  bearing  the  name  of 
Whitman  who  reside  in  Rhode  Island,  also  a  majority  of 
the  Whitmans  who  settled  in  Vermont  and  Northern  New 
York. 


INTRODUCTION.  XV 

7.  At  a  meeting  of  the  General  Court  of  New  Haven, 
held  Oct.  17,  1655,  reference  is  made  to  Joseph  Whitman 
of  Stratford,  Ct. ;  May  12,  1664,  Joseph  Whitman  of 
Huntington,  Long  Island,  was  made  a  freeman  of  the  New 
Haven  Colony ;  without  doubt  these  entries  refer  to  the 
same  person. 

From  this  Huntington  family  are  descended  the  Long 
Island  Whitmans,  many  of  the  name  who  settled  in 
Central  New  York  and  Canada,  and  who  are  scattered 
over  the  Western  country ;  it  is  not  known  whether  the 
Pennsylvania  family  came  from  this  Joseph  or  from  an 
early  German  emigration  to  Maryland.  Walt  Whitman, 
the  poet,  is  a  descendant  of  this  Joseph. 

8.  There  are  a  large  number  of  families  of  Whitmans 
who  are  descended  from  emigrants  coming  after  1700; 
excepting  a  Scotch  family  in  North  Carolina  they  are  all 
of  German  descent ;  the  most  numerous  of  these  families 
is  one  descended  from  John  Whitman,  b.  Germany,  Nov. 
24,  1734,  and  Mary  Kiblingen  his  wife,  b.  Germany,  July 
8,  1745;  he  settled  in  Ashburnham,  Mass.,  his  eldest  son 
being  born  in  that  town,  Feb.  22,  1769  ;  he  left  a  family 
of  four  sons  and  four  daughters. 

9.  There  is  another  family,  the  principal  members  of 
which  are  settled  in  Springfield  and  Westfield,  Mass.,  and 
Troy,  N.  Y. ;  they  are  the  descendants  of  Rev.  Jesse 
Wightman,  b.  Groton,  Ct,  1783,  son  of  Rev.  Timothy 
Wightman  of  Groton,  he  the  son  of  Valentine  Wightman, 
b.  No.  Kingston,  R.  I.,  1681.  The  father  of  Valentine, 
tradition  reports,  was  one  of  five  brothers  who  came  to 
this  country,  all  of  whom  were  Baptists.  As  they  settled 
in  Rhode  Island,  it  is  possible  that  the  Valentine  Whitman 
of  Providence  was  one  of  them. 

The  Rev.  Jesse,  above  referred  to,  came  to  Springfield, 
Mass.,  about  1800,  was  the  first  Pastor  of  the  First  Baptist 
Church  of  West  Springfield,  and  for  some  reason  changed 
his  name  to  "  Whitman."

FIRST     GENERATION. 

1.  JoHN^  Whitman,  one  of  the  earliest  settlers  of  the 
town  of  Weymouth,  in  the  State  of  Massachusetts,  is  the 
Ancestor,  if  not  of  all,  yet  of  nearly  all  of  the  name  of 
Whitman,  as  well  as  of  an  equal  number,  at  least,  bearincr 
other  names,  in  this  country.  He  came  from  England, 
but  from  what  particular  part  of  it  cannot  be  ascertained. 
He  may  have  orig-inated  from  Holt,  in  the  county  of 
Norfolk.  The  name  of  Whiteman  has  existed  there.  In 
the  list  of  those  copied  into  Winthrop's  Journal,  Avho  were 
admitted  freemen,  the  name  of  the  above  John  is  spelled 
with  an  e,  as  are  those  of  Holt.  Governor  Winthrop  and 
his  company  came  principally  from  the  vicinity,  and, 
probably,  some  of  them,  from  tlie  town  of  Holt.  And 
John  came  over,  if  not  at  the  same  time,  yet  not  many 
years  after,  and  attached  himself  to  the  same  company, 
and,  it  may  be  presumed,  was  allured  thitlier  by  his 
neighbors  and  friends,  who  either  came  with  or  had 
preceded  him  a  few  years.  The  e  may  have  been  omitted 
by  him,  as  he  and  his  posterity  have  ever  written  their 
names  without  it.

There  was,  however,  a  John  Whitman,  mentioned  by 
Fox,  in  his  Martyrology,  who  was  of  Rye,  near  Dover, 
and,  as  it  would  seem,  much  of  an  enthusiast.  He  left 
his  family  at  Rye  in  1572,  abruptly,  and  crossed  over  to 
Ostend,  and  there  demeaning  himself  fanatically  and 
offensively  to  the  Roman  Catholics  of  that  place,  was 
apprehended  and  consigned  to  the  flames,  in  which  he 
perished  without  repining  and  in  seeming  exultation.  He 
was  forty-nine  years  of  age  and  left  a  large  family  at  Rye. 
It  is  possible  that  our  Ancestor,  who  was  born  near  the 
commencement  of  the  succeeding  century,  may  have  been 
grandson  of  the  martyr. 

Our  Ancestor  must  have  arrived  in  this  country  some 
time,  and  probably  some  years,  prior  to  December,  1638, 
when,  as  it  appears  by  Winthrop's  Journal,  he  was  made 
free,  viz  :  admitted  to  the  rights  and  privileges  of  a  citizen. 
This  was  not  usually  admissible  until  after  a  probationary 
residence  of  some  time,  and  never  until  after  admission  as 
a  member  of  some  established  church.  He  probably 
settled  at  Weymouth,*  twelve  miles  south  of  Boston,  soon 
after  his  arrival,  but  at  what  precise  period  cannot  be 
ascertained.  He  was,  by  the  Governor  and  assistants, 
appointed  an  ensign  there  in  1645,  which  was,  probably, 
the  first  military  appointment  in  that  town.  In  the  same 
year   he   was,   by  the   same    authority,   with   two   others, 

*  The  town  of  Weymouth  lies  on  the  south  side  of  a  navigable  stream 
called  Fore  Eiver,  which  separates  it  from  Braintree.  By  the  means  of  its 
packets  it  has  ever  had  an  intimate  connection  with  Boston.  The  first 
attempt  at  a  settlement  there  was  1622,  at  which  time  a  company  from 
England  had  been  sent  out  for  the  purpose  under  the  patronage  of  a 
mercantile  gentleman  by  the  name  of  Weston.  This  attempt,  owing  to  the 
hostility  of  the  Indians,  provoked  by  the  improvidence  and  misdemeanors  of 
the  emigrants,  proved  unfortunate,  and  in  1623  was  abandoned.  In  1624, 
Capt.  Robert  Gorges,  son  of  Sir  Ferdinando  Gorges,  renewed  the  attempt, 
and  a  settlement  was  commenced  by  emigrants  from  Weymouth  in  England, 
of  good  character  and  maintained,  and  in  1633,  the  place  was  incorporated 
as  a  town.  Its  local  situation  secured  to  it  many  advantages,  being  conven- 
iently accessible  from  the  sea,  and  enjoying  every  facility  for  being  supplied 
with  the  products  of  the  ocean  as  well  as  of  the  land,  and  having  the  market 
of  the  metropolis  close  at  hand. 


JOHN    WHITMAN    OF   WEYMOUTH. 


appointed  "to  end  small  controversies"  there.  What 
authority  was  exercised  under  the  latter  commission  is  not 
precisely  known,  but,  probably,  not  very  dissimilar  to 
that  which  was  subsequently  expected  of  justices  of  the 
peace.  He  was  also  deacon  of  the  church  there,  probably 
from  its  first  establishment,  until  his  death,  which  was  on 
November  13,  1692. 

He  must  have  lived  to  a  very  advanced  age,  probably 
but  little,  if  any,  short  of  ninety  years.  This  supposition 
is  strengthened  by  the  fact,  that  the  youngest  of  his  four 
sons,  who  was,  probably,  the  youngest  of  nine  children, 
was  born  in  1644.  And  his  oldest  son,  Thomas,  gave  a 
deposition  in  1679,  by  which  it  appears  that  he  was  born 
in  1629.  Some  of  the  daughters  may  have  been  older, 
and  they  probably  were,  as  it  is  scarcely  to  be  presumed 
that  the  nine  children  were  all  born  in  the  course  of  fifteen 
years ;  especially  as  their  parents  were  separated  for  four 
years  or  more  of  the  time,  the  family  not  having  removed 
to  this  country  till  about  1641.  The  tradition,  among  the 
descendants  of  Thomas,  has  been  that  he  was  about  twelve 
years  old  when  he  was  brought  to  this  country.  Thus  it 
results,  as  probable,  that  the  Ancestor  was  married  not  far 
from  1625;  and  early  marriages  not  being  so  common  in 
England  as  in  this  country,  it  may  be  reasonable  to 
suppose  that  he  was  not  married  till  twenty-three  years  of 
age.     This  would  make  him  about  ninety  at  his  decease. 

He  had  a  brother,  Zachariali,  who  emigrated  at  the 
time  he  did,  or  soon  after;  and  settled  in  Milford,  in 
Connecticut,  who  is  spoken  of  in  the  church  records  and 
history  of  that  town  as  early  as  1639.  He  was  one  of  the 
ruling  elders,  and  assisted  at  the  ordination,  in  that  town, 
of  the  Rev.  Roger  Newton,  by  the  imposition  of  hands. 
These  and  some  other  circumstances  concerning  him  are 
noticed  in  Trumbull's  History.  When  he  died  is  not 
known ;  but  probably  not  until  advanced  in  years.  He 
left  no  issue.     His  estate  in  Milford  he  bequeathed  to  his 


4  THE   DESCENDANTS   OF 

nephew,  the  Rev.  Zechariah  Whitman,  son  of  our  Ancestor. 
The  farm  which  he  occupied  is  called  the  Whitman  farm 
to  this  day,  and  is  now  in  the  occupation  of  a  man  by  the 
name  of  Fenn. 

There  was  a  Robert  Whitman,  also,  who  settled  at 
Ipswich.  Whether  he  was  a  brother,  or  but  a  relative,  or 
neither,  of  the  Ancestor,  is  not  ascertained.  He  came 
over  about  the  same  time  and  arrived  at  the  same  place, 
and  settled  in  the  same  colony.  He  was  illiterate  while 
the  others  were  well  educated,  which  makes  it  doubtful  if 
he  were  of  the  same  family.  Whether  he  left  any  issue 
cannot  be  certainly  known.  There  is  no  trace  of  any  in 
the  records,  or  in  the  recollection  of  the  elderly  people  of 
Ipswich.  And  what  he  did  with  his  estate  is  not  known. 
There  are  conveyances  on  record  to  and  from  him  and  his 
wife  Susan.  And  in  1679,  he  was  recognized  as  one  of 
the  proprietors  of  the  common  lands  in  Ipswich,  and  his 
name  appears  on  the  records  there  on  various  occasions  at 
that  period. 

If  he  left  any  posterity,  a  Francis  Whitman,  a  ship- 
wright, in  Boston,  who  died  in  1708,  aged  fifty  years, 
may  have  been  his  son.  He  was  not  the  son  or  grandson 
of  our  Ancestor.  He  left  posterity  in  Boston,  viz  :  Francis, 
Mary  and  Sarah.  His  widow  Mary  survived  him  ;  and, 
with  her  children,  made  a  deed  of  land  on  Essex  street,  in 
Boston,  in  1718.  Francis,  the  son,  is  called  ship-wright 
also;  and  was  without  doubt  the  same  who  was,  in  1755, 
Captain  of  the  Ancient  and  Honorable  Artillery  Company 
in  Boston.  And  Elizabeth  Whitman,  a  widow,  who  made 
her  will  in  Boston,  in  1760,  and  who  therein  mentions  a 
Francis  Whitman  as  her  son,  was  doubtless  his  widow. 
And  the  latter  Francis  was  probably  an  only  son,  if  not 
an  only  child.  And  it  is  not  ascertained  that  he  left  any 
posterity.  With  him  probably  ended  the  descendants  in 
the  male  line  of  the  first  Francis. 

There  was,  at  an  early  period,  in  Providence,  R.  I.,  a 


JOHN   WHITMAN   OF   WEYMOUTH.  5 

Valentine  Whitman.  He  is  mentioned  in  some  of  the 
ancient  documents  as  an  interpreter  to  the  Indians.  What 
posterity  he  left,  or  what  became  of  him,  is  not  certainly 
known.  The  family  by  the  name  of  Whitman,  who  have 
been  for  many  years  inhabitants  of  Providence,  were  not 
of  his  posterity.  There  are,  however,  in  the  town  of 
Warwick,  in  R.  [.,  a  progeny,  who  may  and  probably 
have  descended  from  him.  They  cannot  be  traced  to  any 
other  origin.  And  the  name  of  Valentine  is  said  to  be 
common  among  them.  Whether  he  was  a  brother,  or  any 
connection  of  our  Ancestor,  cannot  be  ascertained.  He 
probably  emigrated  about  the  same  time. 

John,  Zachariah,  Robert  and  Valentine  are,  it  is  believed, 
the  only  persons  of  the  name  that  ever  emigrated  to  New 
England.  They  must  have  emigrated  about  the  same 
time.  These  circumstances  seem  to  render  it  probable 
that  they  were  at  least  relatives.  John  and  Zachariah  are 
known  to  have  been  brothers.  It  is  most  probable  the 
others  were  but  relatives  to  these  in  a  more  remote  degree. 
If  they  had  been  brothers,  some  trace  of  it  would  have 
been  discoverable  from  what  had  been  preserved  from 
John  and  Zachariah. 

John  Whitman  owned  and  lived  upon  a  farm  adjoining 
the  north  side  of  the  highway,  leading  by  the  north  side 
of  the  meeting-house  of  the  north  parish  in  Weymouth, 
and  directly  off  against  it,  and  extending  to  Weymouth 
river ;  and  his  dwelling-house  was  situated  near  the  center 
of  it.  A  part  of  the  dwelling-house  now  remaining  there 
is  said  to  be  150  years  old.  If  so,  the  Ancestor  must  have 
resided  in  it  a  dozen  years  before  his  death.  It  was  built 
in  the  old  style,  being  a  wooden  house,  two  stories  in  front, 
facing  the  meeting-house,  and  one  in  the  rear  towards  the 
river,  and  well  preserved  with  paint. 

The  same  farm,  entire,  has  descended,  by  bequest,  from 
father  to  son,  until  1806,  when  the  Ancestor's  great  grand- 
son,  Abiab,    dying  without  issue,   leaving  two   widowed 


'B  THE    DESCENDANTS    OF 

sisters,  his  heirs-at-law,  one  of  them,  a  Mrs.  Salisbury, 
purchased  out  the  other,  and  has  left  it  to  her  posterity, 
one  or  more  of  whom  now  own  and  occupy  it.  Thus  it 
still  remains,  and  ever  has  remained,  in  unbroken  succes- 
sion, in  its  first  j^ossessor  and  his  descendants,  for  nearly 
two  centuries — an  instance  the  like  of  which  does  not  often 
occur. 

He  was  undoubtedly  a  worthy  man.  His  enterprise  had 
brought  him  to  a  new  country,  probably  with  but  little  if 
any  estate.  He  had,  like  most  adventurer^  into  a  new 
country,  his  own  fortune  to  achieve.  The  wilderness  was 
alone  open  to  him.  An  undaunted  resolution  must  have 
urged  him  forward.  His  wife  and  several  children  had 
been  left  in  the  country  from  which  he  had  migrated — 
three  thousand  miles  of  ocean  intervening  between  them. 
His  only  hope  of  again  rejoining  them,  with  emotions  of 
unalloyed  felicity,  depended  on  his  ability  to  carve  from 
the  wilderness  the  source  of  a  comfortable  subsistence. 
Affection  on  the  one  hand,  and  almost  desperation  on  the 
other,  stimulated  his  exertions.  Joy  and  sadness  must 
have  alternated  in  his  breast,  as  the  idols  of  his  affection, 
or  the  prospect  before  him,  were  uppermost  in  his  mind. 
Years  had  elapsed  before  he  could  be  allowed  to  realize 
that  the  day  of  anxiety  and  solicitude  had  passed  away. 
In  1641,  however,  according  to  traditionary  account,  the 
measure  of  his  felicity  was  made  full  by  the  arrival  of  his 
family,  and  their  establishment  on  the  venerated  spot,  in 
the  town  of  Weymouth,  where  he  had  unremittingly  toiled 
in  anticipation  of  this  consummation  of  his  fondest  hopes. 
There  he  would  seem  to  have  been  trebly  blessed  with 
competency,  offspring  and  length  of  days — his  competency 
the  fruit  of  industry,  his  offspring  the  gift  of  heaven,  and 
his  length  of  days  the  reward  of  temperance  and  virtue. 

In  him  his  posterity  have  an  example  worthy  of  imita- 
tion. His  virtues  were  not  of  the  obtrusive  kind,  nor 
adapted  to  catch  the  popular  admiration.     He  was,  proba- 


JOHN    WHITMAN    OF    WEYMOUTH.  7 

bly,  incapable  of  exploits  that  would  astonish  the  crowd ; 
or,  if  he  was,  his  ambition  did  not  prompt  him  to  the 
attempt.  Many  a  man  has  been  lauded  to  the  skies  for 
the  tricks  of  a  mere  mountebank  without  one  single  virtue 
to  recommend  him.  Nine-tenths  of  the  heroes  of  all 
times  are  of  this  order.  Such  is  human  nature,  and  so 
prone  to  the  marvelous,  and  to  be  dazzled  with  external 
show  and  pomp,  and  to  be  blinded  by  it,  and  utterly  reck- 
less of  what  is  simple,  amiable  and  really  praiseworthy  ! 

But  our  ancestor,  who  feared  God  and  hated  covetous- 
ness  ;  who  did  good  continually  all  the  days  of  a  long  life  ; 
who  by  honest  industry  and  without  offence  to  any  one 
nurtured  and  educated  a  large  family,  and  fitted  them  to 
become  citizens  worthy  of  any  country ;  who  was  an 
exemplar  to  all  around  him ;  who  braved  and  endured 
hardships  and  privations  few  can  realize  ;  and  finally,  who 
fulfilled  every  civil,  religious  and  moral  obligation,  must 
not  be  forgotten  by  his  numerous  posterity.  His  virtues 
should  be  their  virtues,  and  his  history  should  be  deeply 
engraven  on  their  minds.  To  reverence  and  venerate  our 
ancestors  would  seem  to  be  but  an  instinct  of  nature.  At 
any  rate,  it  is  a  dictate  of  humanity,  in  every  form  of 
existence,  from  the  most  savage  to  the  most  civilized  state, 
and  so  ordered  for  wise  purposes.  From  veneration, 
imitation,  if  not  emulation,  will  follow.  Let  us  then 
cherish  and  not  endeavor  to  extinguish  this  propensity. 
Let  us  honor  our  progenitors  that  our  days  may  he  many  in  the 
land  which  the  Lord  our  God  hath  given  us. 

The  foregoing  has  been  taken  from  Judge  Whitman's 
pamphlet  published  in  1821 ;  recent  researches  have 
enabled  the  author  to  obtain  some  additional  data. 

(1.)  As  to  the  time  of  his  arrival  in  this  country  a 
correspondent  has  sent  a  note  stating  that  he  arrived  in 
the  ship  Confidence,  Dec,  1638,  but  is  unable  to  give  his 
authority;  the  only  trouble  with  this  date  is,  that  if 
authentic,   he  was  made  a   freeman  the   same  month,    a 


8  THE   DESCENDANTS   OF 

rather  unusual  occurrence,  though  his  brother  had  ah-eady 
been  in  the  country  since  1635,  and  was  a  prominent 
member  of  the  settlement  at  Dorchester,  which  may  have 
accounted  for  this  early  addition  to  the  list  of  freemen. 

(2.)  The  exact  date  of  his  settlement  in  Weymouth  has 
not  been  ascertained,  but  he  appears  among  those  who 
received  allotments  of  land  in  the  list  of  1642  ;  his  share 
is  described  in  the  Weymouth  records  as : 

''Twenty  and  one  acres  in  the  west  ffield,  fifteene  of 
them  upland  and  six  of  salt  marsh,  bounded  on  the  east 
with  a  high  waie,  on  the  west  and  north  with  a  creeke,  on 
the  south  with  land  of  Walter  Harris — ifower  acres  and 
halfe  on  the  western  neck  bounded  on  the  east  with  a 
creeke,  on  the  west  with  a  meadow,  on  the  north  the  land 
of  Thomas  Streame  and  the  land  of  Mr.  Jenner  on  the 
south — eleven  acres  in  Harrison's  Rainge  first  given  to 
himselfe,  the  land  of  William  Hues  on  the  east,  a  swamp 
on  the  west,  the  land  of  Hugh  Roe  on  the  north  and  Mr, 
Newman  on  the  south — sixty  acres  by  the  great  pond  first 
given  to  Mr.  Hull,  bounded  on  the  east  with  land  of 
William  Carpenter,  on  the  west  with  a  swamp  and  the 
pond  on  the  south — ffour  acres  of  ffresh  marsh  first  given 
to  Mr.  Hull,  bounded  with  a  creek  on  the  east  and  Edward 
Benete's  marsh  on  the  south." 

In  the  list  of  1651  Ensign  Whitman  is  given  12  lots  of 
land,  and  on  the  list  of  1663  he  receives  81  lots  comprising 
60  acres. 

The  first  deed  on  record  to  John  Whitman  bears  date 
10.28,  1649,  in  which  Thomas  Jenner  of  Charlestown 
grants  to  Elder  Bates  and  John  Whitman  of  Weymouth 
"one  dwelling  house  at  Weymouth  (now  in  possession  .of 
John  King),  two  orchards  and  twenty-one  acres  adjoining 
more  or  less ;  also  twelve  acres  at  ye  western  neck,  be  it 
more  or  less ;  also  half  an  acre  upon  Grape  Island,  be  it 
more  or  less  ;  also  forty  acres,  which  is  his  own  pp  (proper) 
lot,  be  it  more  or  less,  and  eighteen  acres  which  was  his 


JOHN    WHITMAN    OF    WEYMOUTH.  9 

father's ;  also  ye  round  marsh,  being-  four  acres  more  or 
less,  and  one  acre  of  fresh  marsh  adjoining-,  and  six  acres 
of  marsh  above  ye  fresh  pond  and  a  wood  lot  on  Hingham 
side." 

The  first  deed  on  record  made  by  John  Whitman  bears 
date  March  19,  1648,  by  which  he  sells  to  William 
Hay  ward  about  22  acres  of  land  in  "  Braintry  "  which  he 
had  purchased  of  James  Nash. 

These  entries  show  that  he  must  have  been  one  of  the 
most  extensive  holders  of  real  estate  in  the  town. 

(3.)  His  office  of  ensign  he  held  till  March  16,  1680, 
when  he  was  relieved  from  further  duty  and  Ephraim 
Hunt,  Jr.,  appointed  in  his  place. 

(4.)  At  a  session  of  the  General  Court  held  May  15, 
1664,  on  the  occasion  of  John  Barrell  and  Richard  Wayer 
being-  sent  as  messengers  to  the  Indians,  John  Whitman 
was  allowed  four  shillings  a  day  "for  his  paynes"  and 
use  of  "  his  horse  in  ye  journey  he  was  employed  in  for 
the  countrye's  services  to  the  Narrowgansetts." 

May  14,  1645,  the  Court  granted  a  petition  of  "the 
Town  Weymouth"  that  Capt.  Perkins,  Wilham  Torrey 
and  John  Whitman  may  be  authorized  by  the  Court  to 
hear  and  determine  as  committees  all  actions  in  the  town 
under  20  shillings;  the  following  year,  Nov.  4,  1646, 
"  Les*  Tory,"  John  Whitman  and  Thomas  Dyer  were 
chosen  to  end  small  causes  and  controversies  at  Weymouth. 

(5.)  The  Whitman  Homestead  remained  in  the  family 
till  1830;  Judge  Whitman's  book  was  written  in  1821. 

(6.)  In  the  Weymouth  records  is  found  this  entry : 
"died  18.17,  1662,  Ruth,  wife  of  John  Whitman;"  there 
is  evidently  an  error  as  to  date,  which  should  probably 
read:  "  d.  8.17,  1662;"  some  think  this  was  the  wife  of 
John^,  while  others  think  it  refers  to  Ruth  Reed,  wife  of 
John".  The  date  of  the  birth  of  the  eldest  child  of  John^, 
viz:  Ruth,  b.  Feb.  1,  1663,  would,  however,  indicate  that 
it  must  be  the  wife  of  John^     The  loss  of  the  early  church 


10  THE    DESCENDANTS    OP 

records  on  which  the  name  of  the  wife  of  John^  would 
appear  destroys  any  opportunity  of  clearing  the  mystery 
regarding-  her  name. 

(7.)  Judge  Whitman  suggests  that  John^  came  from 
Holt ;  in  some  branches  of  the  family  there  is  a  tradition 
that  he  came  from  Coventry  ;  I  am,  however,  of  the  opinion 
that  he  came  from  Herefordshire,  basing  my  opinion  on 
the  fact  that  when  Zachariah,  the  brother  of  John\  settled 
in  New  Haven,  he  located  in  the  so-called  "Herefordshire 
quarter;"  the  settlers  in  this  "quarter,"  under  the  lead  of 
Peter  Prudden,  a  Hereford  minister,  abandoned  New 
Haven  in  a  body  and  settled  at  Milford.  It  seems  hardly 
probable  that  Zachariah  should  during  his  brief  residence 
in  this  country  have  formed  sufficiently  strong  attachments 
to  any  party  to  have  joined  in  the  formation  of  a  new 
settlement  unless  he  had  known  some  of  them  in  England. 
The  records  at  Hereford  have  been  for  some  time  in  such 
a  condition  that  search  among  them  was  impossible,  so  I 
have  been  unable  to  verify  my  own  theory. 

He  had  four  sons  and  five  daughters,  all  but  one  of 
whom  survived  him,  and  six  of  whom  lived  to  be  over 
eighty.

40.  Thomas^  (2),  John\  b.  1629,  '^the  oldest  son  of  the 
Ancestor,  was  about  twelve  years  old  when  he  came  with 
his  mother  and  some  others  of  the  children,  about  1641,  to 
settle  in  this  country.  From  that  time  till  of  age,  as  may 
be  presumed,  he  labored  with  his  father  upon  the  farm  at 
Weymouth.  In  1653  he  was  made  free  at  Boston,  being 
then  twenty-four  years  of  age,  and  a  church  member  of 
course.  Nov.  22,  1656,  he  married  Abigail,  daughter  of 
Ensign  Nicholas  and  Martha  (Shaw)  Byram,  who  probably 
came  over  with  his  father,  as  they  were  made  free  at  the 
same  time,  and  settled  in  the  neighborhood  of  each  other 
at  Weymouth.  An  intimacy,  undoubtedly,  subsisted 
between  their  families,  and  this  match  may  be  believed 
to  have  been  mutually  satisfactory.  Thomas  at  first 
settled  in  Weymouth;  but  in  1662  sold  his  farm  there,  as 
did  his  father-in-law,  Nicholas  Byram,  and  they  both 
removed   to    Bridgewater,*  twelve  miles  south   of  Wey- 

*  Bridgewater  had  formerly  a  great  reputation  for  its  agriculture.  Its  soil 
was  superior  to  that  of  any  other  town  in  the  Old  Colony  of  Plymouth.  Its 
meadow  lands  were  extensive  and  fertile.  But  since  the  war  of  the  Revolu- 
tion and  particularly  of  late,  owing  to  its  abundant  supply  of  eligible  mill

mouth,  where  each  settled  himself  upon  a  valuable  tract 
of  land,  in  the  easterly  part  of  the  town,  then  in  a  state  of 
nature.  That  selected  by  Thomas  Whitman  was  what  has 
since  been  called  Whitman's  Neck,  containing  about  two 
hundred  acres,  and  lying  between  the  rivers  Sautucket  and 
Matfield,  and  coming  to  a  point  at  their  junction.  A  more 
eligible  situation  could  not  have  been  selected.  There  he 
resided  fifty  years,  until  his  decease  in  1712  aged  eighty- 
three  years.  His  first  dwelling-house  there  was  in  front 
of  the  one  occupied  by  Dea.  John  Whitman  and  his  son 
Alfred,  and  about  half-way  between  that  and  Sautucket 
river. 

The  inhabitants  of  Bridge  water  were  greatly  harassed 
by  the  Indians  in  the  time  of  Phillip's  war,  which  com- 
menced 1675.  It  was  then  an  interior  town  in  the  Colony 
of  Plymouth,  and  presented  a  young  unguarded  settlement 
and  frontier  to  the  temptation  of  savage  fury.  The  tradi- 
tion is  that  all  the  houses  not  garrisoned  or  stockaded,  and 
at  a  distance  from  the  village,  save  one,  were  burnt.  The 
one  not  burnt  is  said  to  have  been  Nicholas  Byram's. 
This  house  was  situated  where  Capt.  Isaac  Whitman  lately 
dwelt  and  remote  from  the  village.  This  was  probably 
the  place  of  refuge  of  Thomas  Whitman  and  his  family, 
and  of  the  other  neighbors,  where  their  preparation  for 
defence  may  have  deterred  the  Indians  from  attempting 
an  assault.  There  is  a  tradition,  however,  that  this  house 
was  saved,  from  favor  lo  the  owner,  on  account  of  some 
favor  before  received  by  the  Indians  from  him.  But  this 
may  be  reasonably  doubtful.  It  is  a  trait  scarcely  char- 
acteristic of  Indian  warfare. 

Thomas  Whitman  had  three  sons  and  four  daughters. 
His   will,   dated  1711,  mentions  these   daughters  as  then 

sites,  the  attention  of  its  population  has  been  turned  to  manufactures. 
Formerly  it  furnished  the  seaport  towns  with  many  of  their  agricultural 
products.  At  present,  although  the  aggregate  of  its  crops  is  increased,  it 
does  not  supply  its  own  consumption.  It  was  formerly  a  large  township, 
but  has  recently  been  divided  into  four  towns,  viz  :  Bridgewater,  and  East, 
West  and  North  Bridgewater.

living ;  and  after  reciting-  that  his  sons  had  been  provided 
for  by  deeds  of  conveyance,  makes  them,  after  the  decease 
of  their  mother,  his  residuary  legatees.  John  was  the 
executor  of  this  will.  The  widow  of  Thomas  survived 
many  years  and  until  very  aged,  and  made  a  will  disposing 
of  considerable  personal  estate  and  appointed  Nicholas  her 
executor.  The  character  of  Thomas,  like  that  of  his  father, 
must  have  been  enterprising  and  adventurous,  and  his 
habits  those  of  industry  and  frugality.  The  estate  which 
he  was  enabled  to  parcel  out  among  his  children  was  valu- 
able. His  privations  in  early  life  were  those  of  a  settler 
in  a  wilderness  country,  and  his  disasters  from  Indian  dep- 
redations and  barbarity  were  severely  afflicting.  Those 
in  succeeding  generations,  who  have  enjoyed  unmolested 
the  fruit  of  his  labors,  privations  and  sufferings,  have  not 
too  often  called  to  mind  with  filial  reverence  the  debt  of 
gratitude  due  to  such  a  progenitor.  With  the  exception 
of  John,  there  are  no  records  of  the  birth  of  any  of  his 
children."— E.  W. 

(Mr.  Wm.  Latham  of  Bridgewater  has  furnished  me  some 
facts  regarding  the  various  homesteads  built  by  Thomas 
Whitman.  The  first  house,  built  about  1663  and  undoubt- 
edly a  log  cabin,  was  burnt  by  the  Indians  in  1676.  The 
second,  built  in  1676,  was  occupied  but  a  few  years;  this 
was  also,  probably,  a  log  cabin.  The  third  was  built  in 
1680,  and  was  occupied  by  four  generations,  and  was  the 
birthplace  of  thirty-six  children,  viz  :  Thomas  till  his  death 
in  1712  ;  Nicholas,  his  son,  and  the  birthplace  of  his  sixteen 
children,  1700-1736  ;  John,  son  of  Nicholas,  and  the  birth- 
place of  his  six  children,  1730-1747;  Dea.  John  and  the 
birthplace  of  his  fourteen  children,  1775-1801.  In  June, 
1801,  Dea.  John  raised  his  new  house,  and  in  September 
of  the  same  year,  the  old  house  was  sold  to  David  French 
and  by  him  moved  to  Satucket  on  the  Plymouth  road, 
where  the  frame  still  stands.) 

The  children  of  Thomas  and  Abigail  (Byram),  all  but 
John  b.  Bridgewater,  Mass.,  were :

48.  JoHN^  (3),  John\  the  second  son  of  the  Ancestor, 
was  provided  for  by  his  father  in  what  is  now  the  south 
parish  in  Weymouth.  He  was  settled  there  on  a  farm  by 
the  side  of  a  large  pond,  which  from  him  took  and  still 
retains  the  name  of  Whitman's  Pond.  He  married,  Oct. 
19,  1662,  Ruth  (probably  dau.  of  William)  Reed.  She 
died  without  issue  in  1662,  and  he  then  married  Abigail 
Hollis  and  by  her  had  five  children.  The  Weymouth 
records  give  the  date  of  his  death  as  Feb.  1,  1713.  It  has 
been  impossible  to  find  either  in  Sufi'olk  or  Plymouth 
records  any  mention  of  his  will  or  of  the  administration 
upon  his  estates.  Judge  Whitman  states  that  it  is  not 
known  when  he  died,  and  that  he  left  his  homestead  to 
his  eldest  son  John.  With  regard  to  the  children  of  Jolm^ 
and  Abigail  his  wife,  the  Weymouth  records  and  Judge 
Whitman  are  at  variance  in  some  respects,  but  as  Judge 
Whitman  wrote  more  than  fifty  years  ago,  and  must  have 
at  least  corresponded  with  persons  closely  related  to  their 
Ancestor,  I  shall  follow  him ;  I  will,  however,  give  both :

54.  Rev.  Zechariah^  (4),  Jolm^,  the  third  son  of  the 
Ancestor,  was  born  at  Weymouth,  1644.  He  graduated 
at  Harvard  University  in  1668,  and  Sept.  13,  1670,  was 
ordained,  upon  a  salary  of  £40,  as  the  first  minister  of 
Point  Alderton,  Nantasket  or  Hull,  which  in  1673  was 
taxed  more  than  Medford,  Gloucester  or  Exeter,  and  one- 
third  as  much  as  Roxbury. 

Marmaduke  Matthews  had  been  preaching  at  Hull,  but 
for  ''several  erroneous  expressions"  was  admonished  by 
the  Government,  who  would  not  grant  the  desire  of  the 
people  to  have  him  return. 

Soon  after  his  ordination  he  married  Sarah,  twin  dau. 
with  Anna  of  Dr.  John  Alcock  (H.  U.  1646)  of  Roxbury, 
baptized  May  26,  1650.  The  contract  of  marriage  was 
dated  Oct.  26,  1670,  and  the  ceremony  probably  took 
place  soon  after.  In  May,  1673,  he  was  admitted  as  a 
freeman.  At  the  death  of  his  uncle,  Zachariah  Whitman 
of  Milford,  Ct.,  in  1666,  he  inherited  the  former's  property 
in  that  town,  and  in  the  right  of  his  wife  was  possessed  of 
a  considerable  estate,  including  lands  on  the  Assabet  river 
at  Stow,  Mass.  With  the  exception  of  Mr.  Whitman,  Hull 
has  never  had  one  whose  ministry  continued  through  life. 
In  Nov.  24,  1725,  Ezra  Carpenter  (H.  U.  1720)  was 
ordained  as  a  colleague,  though  Mr.  Whitman  continued 
to  perform  ministerial  duty.  He  officiated  at  the  Lord's 
Supper  for  the  last  time,  May  2,  1725,  and  died  Nov.  5, 
1726.  Receipts  to  the  town  for  his  salary  are  recorded 
from  1705-1723.  Aug.  23,  1726,  the  town  voted  to  pay 
to  his  children  £25  for  his  maintenance  while  he  lived  and 
did  not  preach,  and  his  son  SamueP,  his  executor,  gave 
the  receipt  "for  his  honored  father,  deceased."  From  a 
fragment  of  her  gravestone  it  appears  that  Mrs.  Whitman 

2 


18  THE   DESCENDANTS    OP 

died  "April  ye  3rd,  1715,  aged  65  yrs."  Mr.  Whitman 
"  was  a  good  scholar  and  penman,  and  wrote  most  of  the 
wills  and  legal  papers  in  Hull."  He  signed  the  preface 
to  a  collection  of  manuscripts  written  by  Rev.  Edward 
Tompson,  published  in  Boston,  1712. 

According  to  the  Boston  Neivs  Letter  of  date  Dec.  15, 
1726,  "he  was  well  esteemed  for  his  natural  and  acquired 
accomplishments  ;  but  especially  for  steady  piety,  diligent 
zeal  and  faithfulness  in  the  discharge  of  his  pastoral  office ; 
the  exemplariness  of  his  conversation ;  and  his  patience 
and  submission  to  the  will  of  God  under  his  afflictions." 

By  his  will,  dated  June  12,  1725,  and  proved  Dec.  16, 
1726,  he  confirms  the  grants  of  land  already  made  to  his 
sons  and  daughters ;  charges  the  shares  of  his  sons  Zacha- 
riah  and  John  with  certain  payments  to  their  sister,  Joanna 
Hunt ;  makes  his  son  Samuel  and  daughters,  Sarah  Goold, 
Joanna  Hunt  and  Mary  Jacobs,  his  residuary  legatees,  and 
appoints  his  son  Samuel  sole  and  only  executor.  The  will 
was  witnessed  by  Nehemiah  Hobart,  John  Goold  and 
Samuel  Loring. 

His  records  and  family  papers  are  supposed  to  have 
been  in  the  possession  of  his  son,  the  Rev.  SamueP  of 
Farmington,  and  later  in  the  hands  of  the  Rev.  Elnathan* 
of  Hartford,  Ct,  and  were  destroyed  at  the  time  of  the

graveyard.  It  was  accidentally  discovered  in  cutting  a

64.  Abiah^  (5),  John\  the  youngest  son  of  the  Ancestor, 
b.  Weymouth,  Mass.,  about  1646.  He  resided  with  his 
father  and  inherited  the  homestead.  He  was  admitted  as 
freeman  Oct.  12,  1681.  He  m.  Mary,  daughter  of  Andrew 
Ford.  But  little  is  known  concerning  him.  "  He  was 
undoubtedly  a  man  of  industrious  and  steady  habits.  The 
family  he  brought  up  and  the  property  he  bequeathed 
them  (amounting  to  £1974.10.6),  together  with  his  great 
age,  are  evincive  of  this.  He  was,  moreover,  selected  by 
his  father  to  be  a  stay  and  a  staff  to  him  in  his  old  age ; 
and  was  one  of  the  executors  of  his  will,  and  inherited,  it 
may  be  believed,  a  considerable  portion  of  his  virtues. 
He  had  one  daughter,  who  lived  to  be  ninety-two  years 
of  age,  and  two  sons  who  lived  to  be  eighty." 

The  records  of  the  town  of  Easton  show  that  he  was 
one  of  the  largest  owners  of  land  in  the  so-called  "  North 
Purchase  "  of  Taunton,  which  comprises  the  present  towns 
of  Easton,  Norton  and  Mansfield ;  he  must  have  acquired 
this  land  prior  to  1700;  the  earliest  conveyance  is  dated 
Aug.  8,  1704,  by  which  he  gives  James  Hogg  the  land  on 
which  he  settled  '^  in  consideration  of  the  faithful  services 
performed  for  Capt.  John  Thomas,  his  son-in-law." 

It  was  supposed  by  Judge  Whitman  from  the  fact  that 


20  THE   DESCENDANTS    OF 

Zecliariah^  was  mentioned  after  Abiah^  in  the  will  of  their 
father,  that  Zechariah  was  the  youngest  son,  but  the  dis- 
covery of  the  gravestone  has  settled  it,  that  Abiah^  was 
the  youngest  son.     The  inscription  reads  : 

"  Here  lies  ye  Body 

of  Abiah  Whitman 

Dec'd  January  ye 

38th  1727-38. 

In  ye  82nd  year 

of  his  age." 

His  wife  died  March  15,  1715. 

By  his  will,"  dated  Jan.  28,  1722-3,  proven  Feb.  26, 
1727,  he  bequeaths  to  his  sons  John^,  "Zechary^"  and 
Abiah^  his  moveables  in  equal  parts ;  divides  his  lands  in 
Taunton  between  John^  and  Zechary^ ;  leaves  his  home- 
stead, subject  to  certain  legacies,  to  his  son  Abiah^ ;  men- 
tions his  "  late  daughter  Elizabeth^,  wife  of  Timothy 
Cooper,  his  daughters,  Lydia  Thomas^,  Mary  Daily^  and 
Eleanor  Turner^ ;  appoints  his  sons  John'^  and  Abiah^  exec- 
ntors.  The  will  was  witnessed  by  John  Torrey,  Benjamin 
Richard,  John  Torrey,  Jr.  The  will  is  endorsed  "  Serg't 
Whitman's  Will." 

The  son  Abiah^  was  appointed  sole  executor,  his  brother 
having  declined  to  act.  Among  the  items  in  the  executor's 
account,  the  following  for  funeral  expenses  are  interesting 
as  showing  something  of  the  social  position  of  the  man,  viz:

He  left  seven  children,  as  follows :

settled  about  1699  in  Easton  on  land  given  him  by  Abiah^; 
in  1713  he  acquired  three-quarter  interest  in  the  saw  mill 
on  the  green,  the  other  portion  being  owned  by  John 
Daily;  he  was  killed  in  the   wheel  pit  about  1726  ;  he  is

said  to  have  been  a  very  rough  man^  and  his  death  was

shown  by  this  codicil  to  the  will  of  Rev.  SamueP  of  Farm- 
ington,  in  which  he  signifies  to  his  executors  "for  diverse 
reasons  me  thereto  moving  that  Lydia  Whitman  who  lived 
with  my  father  as  a  maid  many  years,  and  was  after  mar- 
ried to  Capt.  Thomas  who  died  and  left  her  a  widow  with

children  that  are" — dated  Sept.  13,  1750.  Judge  Whit- 
man relates  that  "her  marriage  was  attended  with  circum- 
stances savoring  a  little  of  the  romantic.  While  on  a  visit 
among  her  relatives  in  Boston,  and  while  walking  in  the 
street,  she  caught  the  eye  of  a  Captain  Thomas,  a  respect- 
able shipmaster  then  lately  arrived  from  England.  He 
was  instantly  captivat-jd  with  her  appearance,  and  followed 
her  till  he  found  where  she  lodged ;  and  immediately  after 
contrived  to  gain  an  introduction  to  the  family  there  and 
to  her ;  and  soon  after  married  her,  and  established  himself 
in  very  respectable  style  near  her  father's  in  the  town  of 
Braintree,  where  he  brought  up  a  large  and  respectable 
family."  He  is  reported  to  have  commanded  the  ship

187.  Judith'  (39),  Jolin\  was  probably  the  youngest 
daughter  of  the  Ancestor;  she  ra.  prior  to  1672  Philip 
King  of  Weymouth;  there  is  a  tradition  that  he  settled 
first  at  Braintree,  but  in  a  deed  dated  March  1,  1672,  he  is 
referred  to  as  being  '*  of  Weymouth;"  in  1680  he  pur- 
chased land  in  that  part  of  Taunton  now  called  Raynham 
and  removed  his  family  to  that  town  ;  he  d.  Dec.  26,  1710  ; 
his  will,  dated  Jan.  2,  1706,  probated  May  7,  1711,  men-

30  THE  DESCENDANTS  OE 


THIRD     GENERATION 


196.  JoHN^  (41),  Thomas",  John\  b.  Weymouth,  Sept. 
5,  1658;  m.  1686,  Hannah  Pratt  of  Weymouth.  He 
lived  near  his  grandfather  Byram  in  Bridgewater,  on  the 
east  side  of  what  is  now  called  the  Forge  Pond.  At  the 
age  of  eighteen  he  was  an  active  partisan  soldier,  and  took 
part  in  King  Philip's  war. 

Judge  Whitman  relates  the  following  incident:  "In 
1676,  a  party,  twenty-one  in  number,  of  the  inhabitants  of 
Bridgewater,  among  whom  were  Nicholas  Byram  (proba- 
bly junior)  and  John  Whitman,  son  of  Thomas,  then 
eighteen  years  of  age,  performed  a  signal  exploit.  They 
were  embodied  as  soldiers,  and  destined  to  join  Capt. 
Church,  who  was  expected  from  Plymouth,  by  way  of 
Bridgewater,  to  pursue  the  Indians  towards  Narragansett ; 
but  finding  the  enemy  approaching  before  Church  could 
arrive,  they  sallied  forth,  drove  the  Indians  back,  and  cap- 
tured seventeen  of  them  alive,  witli  much  of  their  plunder, 
and  without  the  loss  of  a  life  on  their  part.  This  event  is 
alluded  to  by  Hubbard  and  Holmes  They  speak  of  a 
violent  tempest  as  coming  to  their  aid,  by  producing  con- 
sternation among  the  Indians.  The  party  was  afterwards 
joined  by  Church,  with  his  company,  who  pursued  the 
enemy  with  great  slaughter,  and  the  capture  of  many 
prisoners.  After  this,  it  is  probable  that  the  inhabitants  of 
Bridgewater  remained  unmolested,  although  not  without 
occasional  alarms  during  the  remainder  of  the  war." 

He  died,  July  28,  1727,  having  had  no  issue.  In  his 
will,  dated  July  24,  1727,  offered  for  probate,  Nov.  5, 
1727,  he  mentions  his  wife  Hannah  as  then  living;  he 


JOHN    WHITMAN    OF   WEYMOUTH.  31 

bequeaths  his  homestead  to  his  nephew  David*,  son  of  his 
brother  Nicholas^  and  appoints  said  brother  executor ;  his 
outlands  and  other  property  he  distributed  among-  his 
other  relatives.  '■'■  He  was  a  man  of  industry  and  frugality, 
as  is  manifested  by  the  property  he  was  enabled  to 
bequeath ;  being  appointed  executor  of  his  father's  will  in 
1712  may  be  admitted  as  satisfactory  proof  that  his 
standing  in  society  was  respectable. 


197.  Ebenezer-^  (42),  Thomas^,  John\  the  second  son 
of  Thomas,  settled  in  the  south  of  Bridgewater,  and  was 
the  first  of  the  name  in  this  part  of  the  town,  which  is  now 
known  as  Bridgewater.  He  went  there  about  1700,  having 
shortly  before,  viz  :  Nov.  17,  16!i9,  married  Abigail,  daugh- 
ter of  John  and  Abigail  (Wells)  Burnham  of  Ipswich.  He 
located  on  Wolf-trap  Plain,  on  the  south  bank  of  Town 
river,  a  spot  occupied  by  five  generations  of  the  family, 
and  retained  by  them  until  1865.  Ebenezer  died  in  1713, 
aged  about  forty  years.  His  widow  took  administration 
of  his  estate,  and  was  appointed  guardian  to  the  children. 
She  afterwards  married  Edmund  Hobart  of  Hingham,  with 
whom  she  lived  on  the  farm  at  Bridgewater ;   5  c.

beyond  the  statement  in  Mitchell's  Bridgewater,  "  that  one 
married  a  Soule,  and  the  other  a  Little,  and  afterwards  a 
Perkins." 


201.  Nicholas^  (43),  Thomas^,  John\  the  third  son  of 
Thomas^,  had  his  father's  homestead  and  lived  with  him. 
The  following  is  taken  from  Judge  Whitman's  memoir : 


32  THE   DESCENDANTS   OF 

"  Nicholas  Whitman  was  a  man  of  great  vigor,  industry 
and  activity.  His  dwelling-house  was  near  Matfield  river, 
a  few  rods  west  of  the  dwelling-house,  afterwards  built  by 
his  son  Ebenezer,  and  lately  occupied  by  Joseph  Keen. 
He  was  born  about  the  time  of  the  breaking  out  of  Philip's 
war,  in  which  his  father's  dwelling-house  and  the  other 
dwellings  in  that  part  of  the  town,  were,  according  to  tra- 
dition, destroyed  by  the  Indians.  This  was  a  period  of 
great  disasters  and  alarm.  The  settlements  were  sparse  and 
wide  apart.  To  come  to  the  aid  of  each  other  of  a  sudden 
was  difficult  and  attended  with  danger.  The  progress  of 
the  settlement  was  of  course  retarded,  and  privations  were 
multiplied.  Schools  could  not  be  established,  and  the 
children  were  but  scantily  furnished  with  the  means  of 
education.  They  were  taught  by  their  parents  to  read, 
but  not,  in  many  instances,  to  write.  Nicholas  could 
doubtless  read  his  bible,  but  if  he  could  write  at  all  it  was 
with  difficulty.  But  possessing  strong  native  powers,  he 
was  enabled  to  manage  the  common  affairs  of  life  to  good 
advantage.  Although  his  family  was  large  he  increased 
his  estate.  He  was  a  constant  attendant  upon  public 
worship,  although  for  a  greater  part  of  his  life  the  meeting 
place  was  three  miles  distant  from  him. 

In  his  religious  notions  he  partook,  in  some  measure,  of 
the  times  and  was  somewhat  pertinacious.  He  could  not 
readily  yield  assent  to  what,  by  the  then  rising  generation, 
were  deemed  improvements  either  in  doctrine  or  ceremony. 
Whatever  he  had  witnessed  in  the  conduct  of  his  fore- 
fathers had  with  him  the  force  of  law.  Accordingly  it  is 
related  of  him  that,  having  grown  up  while  it  was  fash- 
ionable, owing  probably  to  the  open  and  unfinished  state 
of  the  meeting  houses  in  early  times,  for  the  men  to  put 
on  their  hats  during  sermon  time,  he  could  not  readily 
brook  the  idea  of  an  innovation  even  in  this  particular. 
This  practice  had  existed  during  the  whole  of  the  ministry 
(about  fifty  years)  of  the  first  settled  minister  ;   after  which, 


JOHN    WHITMAN    OF   WEYMOUTH.  33 

his  successor,  a  fashionable  young  man  from  the  metropoHs, 
who  was  able  to  persuade  all,  except  Mr.  Whitman,  to  lay 
aside  the  practice,  and  finding  him  contumacious,  he  deliv- 
ered a  discourse  on  the  subject ;  but  before  he  had  finished, 
Mr.  Whitman  arose  and  with  great  gravity,  and  possibly 
without  intending  sarcasm,  remarked,  '  that  rather  than 
off'end  a  weak  brother,  he  would  pull  off  his  hat,'  and 
accordingly  did  so  thereafter,  as  well  during  the  sermon  as 
prayer  time. 

He  had  before  his  death  settled  portions  of  his  home- 
stead upon  his  sons  Thomas  and  John,  and  his  son  David 
was  amply  provided  for  by  the  bequest  of  his  uncle  John, 
as  before  mentioned.  Seth,  Eleazer  and  Benjamin  were 
settled  on  his  outlands.  His  other  children,  after  his 
decease,  had,  between  them,  the  residue  of  his  homestead. 
He  had  the  rare  felicity  of  having  eleven  of  his  children  all 
settled,  and  well  settled,  in  the  same  town  with  himself, 
where  they  all  spent  their  days  in  good  reputation.  Five 
of  them  lived  to  be  of  the  ages  respectively,  80,  86,  87,  90, 
94.  The  other  six  died  between  30  and  70  years  of  age. 
His  posterity  have  been  very  numerous,  and  several  hun- 
dred are  now  living. 

He  came  to  his  death,  '  unfortunately,'  on  the  6tli  of 
August,  1746,  he  being  then  seventy-one  years  of  age.  It 
happened  at  this  time  that  his  son  John  had  some  hay  to 
get  in,  and  he  had  come  with  his  team  to  help  him,  and 
was  remarkable  always  for  insisting  on  driving  his  own 
team,  which  happened  at  the  time  to  be  somewhat  unruly 
The  cart  being  loaded  on  the  meadow,  by  the  river,  nearly 
fronting  the  dwelling-house  of  Dea.  John  Whitman,  he 
drove  it  from  thence  up  a  sidelong  bank,  he  being  on  the 
upper  side,  and  the  cattle  going  quick,  and  the  stubble 
being  dry  and  slippery,  he  slipped  and  fell,  and  before  he 
could  recover  himself,  the  cart  wheel  passed  over  his 
body,  and  he  expired  in  a  few  hours  after.  The  above- 
named  Dea.   John  Whitman,  who  is    his  grandson,   was

present,  and  pointed  out  the  spot  to  the  writer  (Judge  W.) 
But  for  this  occurrence  he  might  have  attained  to  a  great 
age.  The  vigor  of  his  health  and  constitution  gave  promise 
of  it,  and  his  father  and  grandfather  before  him  had  lived 
to  be  very  aged." 

Nicholas  was  three  times  married.  He  m.  1.  1700,  Sarah

last  marriage  he  had  eight  children,  four  of  whom  died  in 
infancy;   16  c.

Mary  of  the  Weymouth  records  who  d.  Jan.  1.  1724;  m. 
2.  April  9,  1761,  Elizabeth  Turner.  He  was  for  one-half 
a  century  deacon  of  the  church;  he  d.  about  June,  1778, 
as  his  will  was  offered  for  probate  July  17,  1778 ;  he  was 
thus  105  years  of  age. 

Judge  Whitman  relates  that  "an  old  lady  in  1830, 
living  in  the  old  dwelling-house  of  the  Ancestor,  remem- 
bers, when  a  little  girl,  to  have  called  at  his  house,  with 
the  female  part  of  the  family  of  the  late  Capt.  Abiah 
Whitman,  on  their  flight  to  Abington,  in  consequence  of  a 
rumor  that  the  British  from  Boston  were  about  to  attempt 
a  landing  at  Weymouth.  She  remarks  that  she  found  him 
packing  up  papers  with  a  view,  doubtless,  to  save  them 
from  British  depredations ;  that  he  appeared  very  old ; 
that  his  hair  was  as  white  as  snow.  This  was  probably  in 
1775  when  he  was  102  years  old.  He  is  reputed  to  have 
left  a  large  estate,  and  no  doubt  spent  a  long  life  in  honest 
industry  and  in  the  fervent  worship  of  his  creator."  No 
mention  is  made  of  his  having  had  but  2  children,  both  by 
1st  m.

Feb.  1,  1708-9.  By  his  father's  will  he  received  the

regard  to  the  farm  lands  at  Stowe,  Mass.,  given  to  his

291.  Samuel-^  (58),  Zechariah",  John\  brother  of  the 
next  preceding,  was  born  at  Hull,  Mass.,  1676.  He  grad- 
uated at  Harvard  in  1696  and  is  said  to  have  been  a  tutor 
there  for  a  short  period.  He  is  mentioned  as  having  occa- 
sionally preached  at  Lancaster,  Mass.,  between  1697-1701. 
In  1699  he  was  employed  as  teacher  of  the  Grammar  School 
at  Salem,  where  he  probably  remained  till  he  was  called 
to  preach  at  Farmington,  Conn.,  at  that  time  one  of  the 
largest  and  wealthiest  towns  in  the  State. 

The  following  are  extracts  taken  from  Farmington  town 
records:    At  a   General  Court   held   1702,   "the   town  of 


42  THE   DESCENDANTS    OF 

Farmington,  laboring  under  great  difficulties  in  reference 
to  the  calling  and  settling  of  a  minister  among  them,  and 
other  ecclesiastical  concerns,  certain  of  the  inhabitants 
made  their  address  to  this  General  Assembly  praying  for 
counsel  and  relief.  In  answer  whereunto,  this  assembly 
doth  order  and  direct  them  to  seek  coimsel  and  help  from 
the  Rev.  Elders,  namely,  the  Rev.  Mr.  Abram  Pierson,  Mr. 
James  No3^es,  Mr.  Taylor,  Mr.  N.  Russel,  Mr.  Samuel 
Russel  and  Mr.  Thomas  Ruggles,  or  any  five  of  them, 
whom  this  assembly  doth  direct  to  be  helpful  unto  them, 
and  (unless  the  said  inhabitants  shall  agree  among  them- 
selves, etc.)  to  nominate  and  appoint  a  minister  for  them, 
and  in  case  the  minister  so  nominated  and  appointed  will 
undertake  this  work,  this  assembly  doth  hereby  order  that 
said  inhabitants  of  Farmington  shall  entertain  him  for  one 
year,  and  also  pay  to  him  such  salary  as  hath  been  usual 
and  customary  among  them."  The  town  officers  were  also 
appointed  by  the  General  Court.  In  1704  the  General 
Court  directed  the  same  ministers  as  above  to  procure  a 
minister  for  the  inhabitants  of  Farmington,  "  who  are 
hereby  ordered  to  receive  him  and  to  pay  him  as  formerly 
until  this  court  do  order  otherwise,  or  until  they  agree 
among  themselves."  In  1705  messengers  were  sent  to 
Nantascot,  near  Boston,  to  confer  with  Mr.  Samuel  Whit- 
man. So  great  was  the  zeal  of  the  people,  that  they  pro- 
posed to  pay  to  any  one  who  would  lend  money  to  bear 
the  expenses  of  their  messeng-ers,  two  shillings  for  one 
shilling  lent  till  the  time  of  the  next  minister's  rate.  Their 
offers  of  salary  were  very  liberal :  first,  90  pounds  a  year, 
with  the  use  of  the  parsonage  in  the  Pequabuck  meadows, 
as  also  forty  acres  of  land  in  fee,  and  a  house,  he  finding 
glass  and  nails.  The  year  after,  200  pounds  were  voted 
as  a  settlement,  a  sahiry  of  100  pounds,  and  his  firewood. 
Wheat  at  that  time  was  five  shillings  and  threepence  per 
bushel. 

He  was  ordained  Dec.   10,  1706,  and  remained  in  his 


JOHN   WHITMAN    OF    WEYMOUTH.  43 

charge  till  his  death.  In  1708,  Mr.  Whitman  being  about 
to  visit  his  friends  in  Boston,  the  town,  by  their  vote,  pro- 
vided for  the  service  and  expense  of  a  "  waighting  man  " 
to  attend  their  minister.  He  married,  March  19,  1707, 
Sarah,  daughter  of  the  Rev.  Solomon  and  Esther  (War- 
ham)  Stoddard  of  Northampton,  b.  Apr.  1,  1680,  d.  Sept. 
10,  1755,  by  whom  he  had  a  large  family.  She  joined  the 
church  at  Farmington  by  letter,  Feb.  11,  1710/11.  He 
had  a  high  repute  as  a  clergyman  and  was  much  beloved 
by  the  people  under  his  charge.  Ranking  among  the  first 
literary  men  of  New  England,  he  was  interested  in  all 
matters  of  education  and  culture  ;  as  a  sign  of  this  we  find 
his  name  among  the  early  subscribers  to  Prince's  Chro- 
nology. In  1726  he  was  appointed  one  of  the  Fellows  of 
Yale  College,  a  position  he  retained  for  more  than  twenty 
years.  According  to  Mr.  Pitkin,  his  successor  in  the  min- 
istry, "he  was  a  gentleman  of  strong  mind  and  sound 
judgment ;  his  sermons  correct,  accurate  and  instructive ; 
his  delivery  and  public  address  calm  and  moderate ;  he 
was  highly  esteemed  and  greatly  improved  in  ecclesiastical 
councils,  and  was  esteemed  a  truly  learned  man." 

During  Mr.  Whitman's  ministry  the  second  meeting 
house  was  begun  in  1709  and  completed  in  1714.  This 
second  church  was  fifty  feet  square,  with  height  propor- 
tional, and  furnished  with  a  cupola  or  turret,  which  tradi- 
tion has  always  placed  in  the  center,  from  which  the  beli- 
rope  was  suspended  so  soon  as  a  bell  was  provided.  How 
hard  it  was  to  build  the  church  of  1709-1772,  and  how 
rude  it  was  when  built,  is  obvious  from  the  fact  that  the 
first  tax  of  a  penny  in  a  pound  was  spent  in  procuring  the 
nails.  Another  vote  respected  the  glass  and  lead.  Another 
directs  that  "it  be  ceiled  with  good  sawn  boards  on  the 
within  side  up  to  the  railings  and  filled  with  mortar  up  to 
the  girts."  Later,  thoughtfulness  of  the  fierce  northwesters 
suggested  the  vote  that  the  mortar  should  be  continued 
along  the   second  story.     Two   tiers  of  new   seats    were 


44  THE    DESCENDANTS    OF 

ordered,  one  on  each  side  the  aisle  which  extended  to  the 
east  door.  It  follows  from  this  and  other  notices  that  the 
house  stood  along  the  street  to  the  northwest  of  the  site  of 
the  present  edifice,  that  the  pulpit  was  on  the  west  side, 
and  the  entrances  were  from  the  north  and  south  and  east. 
The  seats  from  the  first  house  were  probably  removed  to 
the  second,  and  were  placed  facing-  the  pulpit,  except  the 
two  new  ones,  which,  it  may  be  conjectured,  filled  the 
space  not  covered  by  the  old  seats,  now  transferred  to  a 
larger  house.  Mrs.  Whitman,  the  pastor's  wife,  sat  in  a 
pew  at  the  south,  that  is,  the  right  hand  of  the  pulpit,  but 
this  pew  was  built  at  Mr.  Whitman's  expense,  and  after  his 
decease  it  was  purchased  by  the  society.  In  1731  the 
purchase  of  a  bell  was  ordered,  and  in  1738  a  town  clock. 
Before  the  bell  was  provided,  the  beat  of  drum  called  the 
people  together  on  Sundays  and  public  days  at  a  cost  of 
£1  10s.  the  year.  New  seats  were  next  ordered  for  the 
gallery ;  now  and  then  a  pew  was  erected  at  the  expense 

of  its  occupants In  1746  a  committee  was  appointed 

to  repair  the  house  and  see  "  what  can  be  done  to  prevent 
its  spreading."  From  that  time  onward  it  was  doomed  to 
destruction. 

The  only  ecclesiastical  disturbance  which  occurred 
during  the  ministry  of  Mr.  Whitman  was  caused  by  the 
"new  way  of  singing."  It  would  appear  from  the  records 
of  several  meetings  of  the  church  that  the  result  was  for  a 
time  doubtful.  The  following  resolution,  passed  by  the 
parish,  March,  1726-7,  decided  for  the  old  way: 

"  This  meeting,  taking  into  consideration  the  unhappy 
controversy  that  hath  been  among  us  respecting  singing 
of  psalms  in  our  public  assemblies  upon  the  Sabbath,  and 
forasmuch  as  the  church  in  this  place  hath  several  times  in 
their  meeting  manifested  their  dislike  of  singing  psalms 
according  to  the  method  not  long  since  endeavored  to 
be  introduced  among  us,  being  the  same  way  of  singing 
of  psalms  which  is  recommended  by  the  reverend  ministers 


JOHN   WHITMAN    OF    WEYMOUTH.  45 

of  Boston  with  other  ministers,  to  the  number  in  all  of 
twenty  or  thereabouts ;  therefore,  that  the  controversy 
may  be  ended  and  peace  gained  for  this  society,  this  meet- 
ing, by  their  major  vote,  do  declare  their  full  satisfaction 
with  the  former  way  of  singing  of  psalms  in  this  society 
and  do  earnestly  desire  to  continue  therein,  and  do  with 
the  church  manifest  their  dislike  of  singing  according  to 
the  said  method  endeavored  to  be  introduced  aforesaid." 

He  had  by  bequest  one-half  his  father's  lands  in  Stowe, 
Mass.,  and  was  appointed  executor  of  the  will.  His  home- 
stead stood  on  the  main  street  just  in  the  rear  of  the  present 
Savings  Bank,  and  the  property  on  which  it  was  situated 
remained  in  the  family  till  after  1863.  "  His  felicity  was 
consummated  by  the  settlement  of  his  children  in  the 
vicinity  in  which  he  lived,  and  seeing  them  highly  respected 
and  prosperous."  He  d.  July  31,  1751,  from  an  attack  of

tombstone : 

ISAIAH   WHITMAN, 

Son  of  Mr.  Daniel  Whitman  and  Elizabeth  his  wife, 
Of  Bridgewater,  in  the  Province  of  the  Massachusetts  Bay, 
A  student  of  Yale  College,  died  July  25th,  1759, 
In  the  20th  year  of  his  age.        > 

Just  as  his  parents  hailed  the  day 

When  joys  should  all  their  cares  repay, 
Just  as  his  own  fond  hopes  aspired 

To  deeds  by  which  bright  minds  are  fired, 
Death  snatched  him  hence  in  youthful  bloom 

And  sank  those  hopes  beneath  the  tomb.

60  THE    DESCENDANTS   OF 

at  Yale  College,    1726;   was   tutor,   1728-1732;  was  or- 
dained, Nov.  29,  1732,  pastor  of  the  Second  Cong.  Church, 
Hartford,  Ct,  being  the  third  minister  of  this  parish ;  this 
charge  he  held  during  his  life.      He  was  chosen  in  1748 
a  Fellow  of  Yale  College  to  succeed  his  father,  retaining  his 
position  till  1774.     At  the  session  of  the  Corporation   of 
Yale  College  held  Sept.,   1774,  Mr.   Whitman  being  the 
Senior  Fellow,  the  following  minute  was  entered  upon  the 
record :    "  The   Rev.    Mr.   Whitman,   having  repeated  his 
earnest  request  to  resign  his  Place  at  the  Board  on  Account 
of  his  advanced  Age  and  Difficulty  of  hearing,  we  do  with 
Reluctance   accept  his   Resignation    and    return  him   our 
hearty  thanks  for  his  many  good   Services   done   to   the 
Collge  for  a   Number  of  Years."     He   was   a   highly  re- 
spected and  useful  minister.     His  pastorate  in  the  Second 
Church  of  Hartford  covered  the  period  between  the  years 
1732  and  1777,  and  in  the  successive  and  powerful  revi- 
vals   which    followed   upon    the    preaching    of   Jonathan 
Edwards  and  Whitfield,  the  church  was  greatly  increased 
in  numbers  and  power.     It  was  during  his  pastorate  that 
a    new   meeting-house   was    built   (1754),    and    a   large 
bequest  of  land  was  made  to  the  society  by  the  mother  of 
Mr.    Buckingham,    the    late    pastor.     In    1767    the    Rev. 
William  Patten  was  settled  as  colleague  of  Mr.  Whitman, 
but  was  dismissed  in    1773  and  died  in  Roxbury  in  1775. 
His  publications  were  three  sermons,  one  of  them  an  elec-

apparently  never  followed  it ;  a  man  remarkable  for  the 
native  strength  of  his  mind,  the  amenity  of  his  manners 
and  his  inflexible  integrity  ;  though  not  a  college  graduate, 
he  was  well  educated  and  deeply  interested  in  all  literary 
matters ;  was  appointed  in  early  life  a  magistrate  by  the 
colonial  government,  and  was  honored  by  the  inhabitants 
of  his  native  town  with  offices  of  every  grade  in  their 
power  to  bestow  ;  was  appointed  by  the  Assembly  in  1751 
Justice  of  the  Peace  and  continued  in  office  till  1767;  in 
1751  was  chosen  Deputy  to  the  Greneral  Assembly  and 
reelected  for  sixteen  terms;  in  1769  the  Probate  Court  of 
the  Farmington  District  was  established,  and  Solomon 
Whitman  was  the  first  Judge  appointed,  and  probably 
retained  the  office  till  disqualified  by  age ;  the  first  Court 
was  held  March  3,  1769;  the  last  record  of  liis  adminis- 
tration, 1778.  He  had  a  vigorous  constitution  and  retained 
his  full  faculties  till  his  death ;  it  is  related  that  he  cele- 
brated his  90th  birthday  by  making  a  pair  of  shoes ;  he 
held  the  office  of  Town  Clerk  at  the  age  of  92  ;  possessing 
to  a  singular  degree  the  influence  and  power  to  allay  the 
spirit  of  litigation  and  contention  among  his  neighbors,  he 
was  continually  called  upon  to  act  as  arbitrator  in  their 
disagreements.  His  death  is  said  to  have  been  caused  by 
over  fatigue  in  settling  a  fence  boundary  dispute  between 
two  brothers.  Inheriting  from  his  father  large  landed 
possessions,  he  improved  them  by  careful  management, 
and  accumulated  a  handsome  property ;  till  tlie  death  of 
his  third  wife  he  lived  in  his  father's  homestead ;  after  that

d.  Jan.  25,  1811,  aged  86.  He  settled  at  Providence,  R.  I., 
about  1745  ;  his  first  purchase  of  land  that  appears  on  the 
record  was  Feb.  16,  1746;  this  was  a  "small  lot"  20x66, 
situated  at  what  is  now  the  corner  of  Weybosset  and  West- 


66  THE    DESCENDANTS    OF 

minster  streets ;  to  this  so-called  "small  lot"  large  addi- 
tions were  subsequently  made,  and  here  the  family  mansion 
was  subsequently  erected.  The  corner  was  for  many  years 
known  as  the  Turk's  Head,  deriving  its  title  from  a  large 
carved  wooden  head,  representing  a  turbaned  Turk,  with 
a  most  hideous  visage,  and  a  fiery  red  tongue  lolling  from 
its  mouth,  which  was  placed  at  the  corner  of  the  house ; 
its  origin  is  unknown  but  it  had  something  of  a  subsequent 
history:  in  the  great  gale  of  Sept.,  1815,  it  was  blown 
down  and  floated  away ;  it  was  recovered  by  Jacob''  and 
his  son  George^,  and  by  the  latter  taken  to  Montgomery, 
Ala.,  where  it  was  set  up  in  front  of  his  place  of  business ; 
it  was  finally  stolen  by  some  wags,  who  sent  it,  packed  in 
saw-dust,  to  the  Governor  of  Alabama,  as  the  head  of  a 
notorious  Indian  chief,  for  whose  head  a  reward  had  been 
off'ered.  Jacob  Whitman  was  a  blacksmith  by  trade,  and 
especially  skilled  in  iron  work  for  ships,  in  which  he  did  a 
large  business,  filling  orders  from  Boston,  Salem,  Lynn, 
and  other  shipping  ports  ;  he  was  also  engaged  in  a  general 
trading  business  for  many  years  ;  an  old  ledger  marked  H. 
and  coming  down  to  1772  is  still  preserved  in  the  family  ; 
1764-1765,  he  was  "thrice"  elected  Deputy  to  the  Gen- 
eral Assembly;  from  1769-1773,  was  member  of  the 
Town  Council ;  was  appointed  by  the  General  Assembly 
in  1778  "  General  Sealer  of  Weights  and  Measures  within 
and  throughout  the  State;"  he  d.  May  10,  1802,  aged  86, 
leaving  a  large  central  and  valuable  estate,  a  portion  of 
which  is  still  in  the  possession  of  his  granddaughter. 

The  following  obituary  appeared  in  a  Providence  paper, 
dated  May  15,  1802  :  "On  Monday  last,  in  the  86th  year 
of  his  age,  Mr.  Jacob  Whitman,  a  native  of  Massachusetts, 
but  for  upwards  of  sixty  years  a  useful  and  virtuous  citizen 
of  this  town.  Industry,  hospitality  and  inflexible  integrity

the  various  periods  of  his  protracted  life.  His  native

•attracted  to  him  in  an  uncommon  degree  the  love  and 
respect  of  his  relatives,  friends  and  fellow  citizens.  Pious 
without  severity,  the  purity  of  his  life  was  the  best  comment 
upon  the  religion  he  professed ;  its  blessed  precepts  he 
religiously  observed,  and  which  supported  him  under  the 
presence  of  age  and  infirmity,  and  enabled  him  to  meet 
his  dissolution  with  the  same  serenity  and  resignation 
which  had  so  distinguished  him  amidst  the  numerous  afflic- 
tions which  it  had  pleased  Heaven  to  visit  him,  having 
been  bereaved  of  twelve  children.  His  life  was  an  excel- 
lent example  to  mankind,  and  his  exit  manifested  the  peace 
wherewith  a  Christian  could  die.  His  amiable  partner  sur- 
vives to  weep  over  the  companion  of  her  youth  with  whom 
she  had  passed  with  uninterrupted  harmony  nearly  sixty 
years  of  her  life.  On  Wednesday  his  remains  were  respect- 
fully deposited  in  the  burying-ground  of  the  Benevolent 
Congregational  Society  attended  by  a  concourse  of  affec- 
tionate relatives  and  friends."  He  was  a  charitable  man 
and  interested  in  all  educational  matters.  The  records 
show  that  in  1770  he  subscribed  £13  towards  building  the 
college  edifice  and  president's  house  of  Brown  University ;

Rev.  Mr.  Foster  of  Stafford,  Ct,  b.  1727 ;  d.  Dec.  24,  1812. 
In  1755  the  English  Government,  having  dispossessed  a 
large  number  of  French  settlers  in  Nova  Scotia,  the  Grov- 
ernor  of  that  Province  issued  a  proclamation  inviting  set- 
tlers ;  in  company  with  forty-five  others  John*  arrived  at 
Annapolis,  N.  S.,  June,  1761,  in  the  sloop  "Charming 
Molly,"  bringing  with  them  their  families,  household  goods 
and  stock ;  a  full  list  of  these  possessions  is  to  be  found  in 
the  diary  of  Felsh,  Evans  and  Bent,  who  were  appointed 
a  committee  to  wait  on  the  Governor  and  obtain  the  prom- 
ised lands ;  a  grant  was  finally  issued  to  about  a  hundred, 
of  a  tract  extending  along  the  south  line  of  the  Annapolis 
River  from  Saw-mill  Creek  to  Wilmot  line,  and  seven  and 
one-half  miles  in  depth.  John  did  not  survive  to  receive 
his  share,  which  was  distributed  among  his  sons  ;  he  d.  Sept. 
12,  1763,  leaving  considerable  property  and  the  founda- 
tion for  a  handsome  establishment ;  his  widow  was  left 
with  eleven  children,  all  under  fifteen.  "  This  was  to  them 
a  truly  afflicting  dispensation,  situated  as  they  were  in  a 
strange  land,  and  remote  from  all  their  connections ;  the 
widow,  however,  would  seem  to  have  been  of  a  superior 
cast  of  intellect,  and  of  no  ordinary  share  of  resolution  ; 
she  kept  the  family  together,  nurtured  and  educated  her 
children,  and  lived  to  see  nine  of  tliem,  two  having  died 
young,  eligibly  and  comfortably  established  in  the  world ; 
and  for  many  years  she  enjoyed  the  remuneration  of  her 
toil,  perplexity  and  solicitude  in  their  dutiful  gratitude, 
love  and  veneration."  John,  though  a  young  man,  had 
been  chosen  deacon  of  the  church  at  Stow,  and  had  he

531.  Dr.  Charles^  (306),  JohiT^,  Zecherialr,  John\  the 
youngest  child  of  John,  was  b.  at  Stow,  1731.  He  studied 
medicine  and  settled  in  his  native  town,  and  practiced  his 
profession  there  for  nearly  half  a  century.  His  first  wife 
was  Anna  Stevens,  a  direct  descendant  of  Pocahontas.  He 
was  a  man  of  great  dignity  of  manner  and  very  particular 
in  his  dress.  It  is  a  family  tradition  that  he  always  wore 
a  long,  dark  green  coat  with  silver  buttons,  silver  knee 
buckles,  and  his  hair  in  a  cue ;  he  was  always  very  exact- 
ing about  the  braiding  of  his  hair  and  the  freshness  of  the 
ribbons  with  which  it  was  tied,  always  insisting  that  they 
should  be  three  yards  and  a  half  in  length ;  it  is  related 
that  during  his  last  sickness,  one  of  the  daughters  becoming 
wearied  with  the  care  of  the  cue,  cut  it  off,  an  act  which 
her  father  never  forgave.  He  had  a  slight  impediment  in 
his  speech,  which  caused  him  to  speak  with  great  delibera- 
tion ;  he  always,  in  prescribing  for  a  patient,  used  a  certain 
formula,  which  was :  "I  think,  madame,  upon  the  account, 
upon  the  account  of  it,  that  you  need  so  and  so."  His  first 
wife  died  in  1785,  and  the  next  year  he  married  Mrs. 
Catharine  Davis,  widow  of  the  Rev.  Dr.  Swift  of  Billerica. 
During  the  last  years  of  his  life  his  mind  became  im- 
paired, and  his  property,  by  order  of  the  Court,  dated 
April  12,  1805,  was  placed  in  the  hands  of  a  committee^ 
and  his  son,  Dr.  Charles'*,  Jr.,  was  appointed  his  guardian.. 
He  d.  Dec.   10,  1807,  aged  76 ;  his  widow  survived  him

died  in  his  native  town,  but  few  facts  have  been  g-athered 
concerning  him.  The  Massachusetts  muster  rolls  give : 
''  Sgt.  Zachariah  Whitman  marched  in  Co.  of  Lieut.  Joshua 
Alden  on  the  Alarm  at  Bristol,  R.  I.,  Dec.  8,  1776."  With 
regard  to  the  family,  Judge  Ezekiel  Whitman*'  writes  on 
May,  1853:  "I  was  intimately  acquainted  with  Mrs.  Abi- 
gail K.  Whitman  and  her  husband  and  children ;  she  was 
one  of  the  most  amiable,  kind  hearted  and  motherly  of 
women;"  he  d.  April  19,  1819,  aged  81 ;  5  c.  I.  Kilborn^;

689.  I.  KiLBORN*',  b.  Aug.  17,  1765,  at  Bridgewater; 
graduated  at  Harvard  University,  1785,  and  fitted  for  the 
ministry  with  Rev.  William  Shaw  at  Marshfield,  Mass., 
1785-6  ;  while  at  Marshfield,  he  made  the  acquaintance  of 
Elizabeth,  eldest  daughter  of  Isaac  Winslow,  b.  Nov.  14, 
1769;  d.  Aug.  25,  1854,  aged  85;  a  direct  descendant  in 
the  fifth  generation  from  Gov.  Edward  Winslow  of  the 
Mayflower.  Dec,  1787,  Mr.  Whitman  was  settled  in  the 
ministry  at  Pembroke,  Mass.,  and  the  next  year,  June  5, 
1788,  married  Miss  Winslow;  he  continued  at  Pembroke 
till  Dec.  12,  1796  ;  with  an  increasing  family,  he  found 
his  salary  insufficient  for  their  support,  and  decided  to 
retire  from  the  ministry ;  he  then  entered  upon  the  prac- 
tice of  law,  having  studied  with  his  brother  Benjamin^, 
who  resided  in  Hanover,  an  adjoining  town ;  he  was 
admitted  to  the  bar  in  1798,  and  attended  the  courts  in 
Plymouth,  Bristol,  Barnstable  and  Dukes  Counties  and 
Nantucket ;  he  retained  his  farm  and  home  in  Pembroke 
and  had  his  office  there ;  was  chairman  of  the  Selectmen 
in  Pembroke  and  represented  that  town  in  the  legislature 
for  several  terms ;  was  also  associate  Judge  of  the  Court  of 
Common  Pleas,  when  the  Hon.  Nahum  Mitchell  of  E. 
Bridgewater  was  its  Chief  Justice  ;  for  many  years  he  was 
County  Attorney  for  Plymouth  County,  and  for  a  long 
time,  with  Judge  Nymphas  Marston  of  Barnstable,  was 
Overseer  of  the  Marshpee  and  Herring  Pond  Indians. 


80  THE   DESCENDANTS    OF 

During  the  many  years  he  was  in  practice,  he  had  at  his 
office  a  large  number  of  students  who  read  law  with  him, 
many  of  whom  afterwards  became  leaders  at  the  bar;  he 
was  frequently  called  upon  to  deliver  public  addresses  and 
to  respond  to  toasts  at  public  banquets  and  dinners ;  it  is 
related  that,  at  a  collation  given  at  the  annual  review  of 
the  Hanover  Artillery  Company,  of  which  his  brother 
Benjamin  was  Captain,  being  called  upon  for  a  toast,  he 
arose  with  great  dignity  and  impressiveness  and  gave : 
*'  The  Hanover  Artillery  Company — may  their  pieces  be 
loaded  with  true  New  England  principles,  wadded  with 
Jacobinism,  and  pointed  against  every  aspiring  demagogue." 

While  Mr.  Whitman  remained  in  the  ministry  he  was 
Congregational  in  his  belief,  but  afterwards  adopted 
Unitarian  views,  which  he  held  while  he  lived ;  as  a 
preacher  he  had  fine  presence,  was  forcible,  elegant  and 
popular;  as  a  judge  he  was  upright,  dignified,  able  and 
urbane ;  as  an  advocate  he  was  ready,  witty,  elegant  and 
courteous,  popular  with  the  court,  and  successful  with  the 

jury. 

His  marked  characteristics  were  fine  presence,  unusual 
conversational  powers,  felicitous  wit  and  generous  hospi- 
tality ;  among  his  frequent  guests  were  Daniel  Webster, 
Judge  Strong,  and  many  members  both  of  the  bench  and 
the  bar ;  and  a  large  circle  of  friends  and  acquaintances 
always  found  cordial  welcome  at  his  house  and  home. 
Many  anecdotes,  showing  his  bright  sayings  and  ready 
wit,  are  now  remembered  and  often  repeated  by  members 
of  the  bar  and  his  friends. 

With  this  brief  notice,  we  leave  him  to  go  down  the  line 
of  time  with  those  of  his  name,  and  those  of  his  blood  and 
kindred.  "  His  works  do  follow  him."  His  only  publica- 
tions were  a  "  Sermon  preached  at  the  ordination  of  Rev. 
Joshua  Cushman  at  Winslow,  Me.,  1795;  an  Oration, 
1798."     He  d.  Dec.  11,  1835,  aged  70;  11  c.

at  Harvard  University,  1848;  d.  unmarried,  June  25,  1851.  The 
following  appeared  in  one  of  the  Boston  papers : 

"  The  intelligence  of  the  death  of  Mr.  Williams  has  fallen  upon 
his  fellow-members  of  the  class  of  1848  with  a  startling  suddenness. 
Possessing  in  an  uncommon  degree,  every  outward  indication  of 
vigorous  health,  he  was  yet  more  distinguished  by  a  certain  liveliness 
of  movement  and  expression  which  betokened  anything  but  pre- 
mature death.  But  as  frequently  happens  in  similar  instances  the 
ruddiness  of  early  manhood  confirmed  instead  of  combatting  the 
acute  disorder  which  finally  mastered  him. 

The  hearty  sorrow  of  all  who  had  the  pleasure  of  knowing  Mr. 
Williams  is  increased  by  the  knowledge  that  his  loss  has  occurred 
just  as  he  was  on  the  point  of  entering  the  profession,  to  which  with 
singular  earnestness  he  had  devoted  the  last  three  years.  With  a 
hopefulness  peculiar  to  him  he  had  looked  forward  to  the  toils  of 
the  legal  profession  (for  which  he  had  laboriously  fitted  himself) 
with  remarkable  cheerfulness.  His  knowledge  of  law,  which  it 
would  be  presumptuous  to  call  great  when  we  remember  the  requi- 
site '  lucubrations  of  twenty  years,'  was  in  the  opinion  of  competent 
judges  eminently  meritorious  for  a  young  man  and  foretold  a  future 
full  of  honor  and  usefulness. 

It  is,  however,  for  the  signal  graces  of  his  heart,  that  his  friends 
and  especially  his  classmates  love  to  remember  him.  Their  four 
years  intimacy  with  him  was  enlivened  by  his  buoyant  humor  and 
the  constant  exhibitions  of  a  genuinely  good  heart.  Like  his  class- 
mate, the  young  and  lamented  Hale  who  perished  in  a  noble  ser- 
vice to  humanity  last  summer  at  Pensacola,  he  was  peculiarly  dis- 
tinguished by  a  strong  attachment  to  his  classmates.  No  doubt  half 
of  the  pleasures  of  a  college  life  during  its  continuance,  and  more 
than  this  proportion  of  the  pleasure  with  which  one  looks  back 
upon  it  arises  from  that  interchange  of  good  offices  and  sympa- 
thies between  college  associates  which  is  designated  by  the  term 
class  feeling.  This,  Mr.  Williams  eminently  possessed,  and  en- 
couraged. His  ardent  impulsive  temperament  knitted  to  him  many 
fast  friends,  without  making  one  enemy.  On  the  first  day  of  his 
illness  he  accompanied  to  the  wharf  a  friend  to  whom  he  was  re- 
markably attached  and  who  was  then  upon  the  point  of  embarking 
for  Europe.     He  returned  to  his  home  to  die,  and  with  unfeigned 


JOHN   WHITMAN   OF    WEYMOUTH.  83 

readiness  resigned  all  his  youthful  hopes  for  a  death,  which  we 
trust  though  unexpected  was  not  to  him  a  surprise."

the  37th  annual  report  of  the  Massachusetts  School  for  the  Feeble 
Minded  :  "  Within  the  present  month  the  institution  has  sustained 
a  loss  seemingly  irreparable.  William  Brandt  Storer,  for  thirteen 
years  one  of  the  trustees  on  the  part  of  the  corporation,  and  for 
eight  years  Secretary  of  the  board,  died  at  his  home  in  Cambridge 
on  the  14th  day  of  October,  1884,  at  the  age  of  46.  In  the  full 
vigor  of  his  powers,  with  no  fiery  throbbing  pain,  and  no  cold  grad- 
ations of  decay,  he  passed  instantly  from  the  life  that  is  to  the  life 
that  is  to  be.     He  was  a  tower  of  strength  to  us ;  his  noble  presence

was  familiar  here.  These  feeble  ones  found  comfort  in  his  great 
heart  and  generous  sympathy,  rejoicing  in  the  light  of  his  benign 
and  sunny  countenance.  His  wisdom  was  a  guide  and  support  to 
the  officers  and  teachers,  and  his  counsels  were  invaluable  to  his 
associates  on  this  board.  His  life  was  a  constant  and  daily  blessing. 
Few  men,  if  any,  in  our  community,  were  actively  identified  with 
so  many  important  charities,  few  were  of  more  service  to  any  of 
these,  than  he  to  each  and  all.  But  he  accepted  no  public  offices 
and  asked  no  promotions.  11  is  companionship  was  sought  for  the 
sunshine  in  which  he  lived,  and  which  he  was  always  diffusing 
around  him.  None  were  too  high  to  bid  him  cordial  welcome  to 
their  intimacy  ;  none  too  low  to  be  beneath  the  cheering  and  inspir- 
ing influence  of  his  sympathy  and  friendship.  His  heart  was  open 
and  his  hand  was  free.  It  was  his  great  happiness  to  make  others 
happy,  to  cheer  the  sinking  heart  of  poverty,  to  raise  the  fallen,  to 
comfort  the  distressed.  So  while  the  strong  rejoiced  with  him  in 
his  strength,  '  the  feeble  soul,  albeit  a  haunt  of  fears,  forgot  its 
weakness  in  his  sight.'  As  in  his  life  he  was  a  constant  blessing  to 
the  poor  and  lowly,  so  through  his  life  and  in  his  death  the  blessings 
of  the  poor  and  lowly  followed  him."  For  many  years  he  held  the 
post  of  Russian  Vice-Consul,  and  was  engaged  in  the  Russian  trade ;

however,  was  determined  to  enjoy  the  same  privilege,  and 
was  confident  that  if  only  permission  was  given,  he  could 
fight  his  way  through ;  almost  unaided  by  his  parents  he 
prepared  for  Brown  University,  from  which  he  graduated, 
1788  ;  after  studying  law  he  settled  first  at  Pembroke,  and 
later  at  Hanover,  where  he  continued  to  reside  for  many 
years ;  the  exact  date  of  his  removal  to  Hanover  is  un- 
known, but  it  was  about  1792  ;  being  the  first  lawyer  to 
settle  in  the  town,  he  naturally  took  a  prominent  part  in

all  town  affairs ;  his  office  became  a  favorite  one  with 
students,  among  whom  were  Hon.  Ezekiel  Whitman ;  he 
was  for  many  years  postmaster ;  was  one  of  the  incorpo- 
rators and  first  Captain  of  the  Hanover  Artillery  Company  ; 
the  uniform  prescribed  was  "  a  coat  of  blue  cloth  faced 
with  red,  brass  buttons,  buff  pants  and  vest,  white  leather 
belt,  brass  breastplate ;  the  hats,  the  old-fashioned  cocked 
hats  of  fur,  surmounted  by  a  black  plume  tipped  with  red  ;" 
was  in  1825  Adjutant  of  the  militia  ;  a  writer  in  the  History

business  enterprise,  an  active  politician,  and  his  services 
were  of  great  value  to  the  town  during  his  residence  in  it ;" 
in  1804  he  removed  his  office  to  Boston,  his  residence 
being  at  So.  Boston,  and  soon  became  well  known  both  at 
the  bar  and  in  political  life ;  from  1806-1819  he  continu- 
ously represented  Boston  in  the  Legislature ;  in  1822  the 
Boston  Police  Court  was  organized,  and  June  22  of  that 
year  he  was  chosen  presiding  Justice,  a  position  he  re- 
tained till  1834,  his  successor,  James  E.  Merrill,  being 
commissioned  Feb.  19,  1834;  as  a  magistrate  he  was  very 
popular,  winning  the  admiration  of  all,  not  only  by  his 
strict  impartiality,  but  by  his  sympathy  and  tenderness  in 
dealing  with  the  poor  and  unfortunate ;  he  d.  Boston,  Aug.

''  Benjamin  Whitman,  born  in  Bridgewater,  Mass.,  grad- 
uated at  Brown,  1788,  and  died  in  Boston,  31  Aug.,  1840. 
He  first  resided  in  Pembroke,  next  in  Hanover,  Avhere  he 
built,  near  the  river,  what  was  considered  one  of  the  best 
houses  in  the  county.  The  bitterness  of  democracy  caus- 
ing him  to  sell  this  eligible  estate,  he  removed  to  Boston 
in  the  autumn  of  1803.  In  1809  he  purchased  of  Gen.  S. 
Elliot  a  large  homestead  in  Federal  street,  where  he  died 
of  heart  disease,  induced  by  a  fall  in  1828  while  erecting 
houses  in  the  rear  of  this  estate.  During  his  life  he  built 
nineteen  dwellings,  but  never  was  a  speculator ;  the  wealth 


JOHN    WHITMAN    OF    WEYMOUTH.  89 

he  left  at  its  close  was  entirely  the  result  of  extensive  legal 
practice  in  Suffolk,  Norfolk,  Plymouth,  Bristol  and  Nan- 
tucket. By  his  own  persevering  energy,  study  and  faith- 
fulness he  gained,  unaided,  his  education,  and  became 
distinguished  in  the  profession  of  the  law,  having  had  an 
unusual  number  of  students  with  a  large  library  of  English 
and  American  law.  His  last  public  speech  in  Fanueil 
Hall  was  in  favor  of  adopting  the  city  charter.  While  in 
Hanover  he  was  a  master  freemason,  postmaster,  and  cap- 
tain of  the  artillery  of  which  he  was  a  charter  member  by 
statute. 

For  many  years  he  was  President  of  the  Boston  Board 
of  Health,  rendering  gratuitous  yet  efficient  service  during 
several  panics  of  the  yellow  fever,  and  for  quite  as  many 
years  he  represented  the  town  in  the  Legislature.  Upon 
the  change  to  a  city  government,  he  was  appointed  Judge 
by  Governor  Brooks  at  the  urgent  solicitation  of  Chief 
Justice  Parker. 

In  no  official  station  would  he  stoop  to  a  time-serving 
policy,  or  run  after  a  popularity,  ephemeral,  because 
solicited.  Always  independent,  industrious,  honest  and 
practical,  both  in  opinion  and  action,  he  exemplified  the 
fearless  magistrate  in  time  of  riot,  at  the  bar  and  upon  the 
bench,  intent  on  social  order  and  the  general  weal,  aiming 
to  do  justly,  leaning  to  mercy,  and  walking  undisguised 
among  his  fellows.  He  stood  forth  a  conspicuous  friend 
of  the  mechanics,  and  in  all  his  contracts  with  so  many  of 
them,  no  Saturday  night  ever  came  to  find  him  their  debtor. 
From  such  freedom  sound  sleep  is  apt  to  spring. 

In  domestic  life  he  illustrated  what  he  inherited  from 
his  mother,  Abigail  Kilborn  of  Connecticut — an  emotional 
nature,  generous  and  affectionate  almost  to  an  excess.  The 
milk  of  human  kindness  can  be  very  distinctly  traced 
through  this  rich  fountain.  From  his  varied  reading  he 
would  cull  the  most  sententious  and  impressive  flowers  of 
thought,  to  use  them  often  as  self-inspirations  as  well  as 
weapons  of  reproof  or  of  defence  and  warning. 


90  THE    DESCENDANTS    OF 

Of  course  the  heart  that  prompted  him  to  comfort  his 
own  mother  and  two  mothers  by  marriage  besides  in  their 
old  age,  to  fill  his  pockets  with  dainties  for  the  little  ones 
in  the  neighborhood,  to  arrange  and  hide  for  New  Year's 
the  multiform  presents  procured  for  so  many  sharers  in  the 
social  festivals — such  a  heart  would  feel  a  heaviness  im- 
printing itself  upon  the  thoughtful  features  when  any  one 
grieved  him  by  ingratitude,  folly  or  vice.  But  the  dead 
are  free  from  all  such  disturbances. 

Long  ago  he  was  laid  away  from  the  sight  of  those  lie 
tried  to  make  happy.  His  three  surviving  children,  who 
all  now  have  reached  threescore  and  ten,  recall  with 
sweeter  and  holier  memories  than  ever  his  faithful  public 
.  service,  his  private  nobility  of  character  and  his  affluence 
of  affection,  so  they  may  lay  a  wreath  upon  his  dust, 
attract  others  to  his  example,  and  insure  the  respect  of  his 
descendants  for  a  true  Christian  man,  who  combined  with 
vigorous  capacity,  mental  and  moral,  the  welfare  of  others 
as  the  daily  incentive  to  exertion. 

Among  his  legislative  acts  he  drafted  that  which  estab- 
lished a  reporter  of  decisions  and  one  for  creating  homes 
for  those  who  represented  what  was  called  ''the  middling 
interest."  Of  his  publications,  a  Fourth  of  July  Oration 
in  Hanover,  a  Plea  in  a  capital  trial,  and  an  Index  of 
Statutes,  are  only  to  be  found."

first  History  of  the  Association,  devoting  to  the  task  many  years 
of  great  labor,  making  it  a  movement  to  his  painstaking  care

obtained  a  brief  sketch :  "  Zachariah  Gardner  "Whitman  graduated 
Harvard,  1807 ;  he  waded  through  much  social  trouble,  but  his  biog- 
raphy may  best  be  summed  up  by  saying  that,  Freemasonary,  this 
Ancient  Corps,  Episcopacy,  and  Antiquarianism  were  the  objects 
of  his  unwearied  favor  ;  the  manuscripts  left  at  his  decease,  together 
with  seven  volumes  of  anniversary  sermons,  the  most  perfect  col- 
lection extant,  was  given  by  his  widow  to  the  Artillery  Company  ; 
his  laborious  research  and  patient  life  to  render  this  edition  a  valu- 
able work  of  history  and  biography  to  the  company  and  the  country

JOHN    WHITMAN    OF    WEYMOUTH.  93 

"  Abigail  Kilborn,  eldest  daugliter  of  Judge  Whitman  of  Boston, 
was  a  woman  of  great  culture  and  refinement.  A  sweet  singer  and 
in  those  days  a  fine  pianist.  '  The  Battle  of  Prague,'  eighty  years 
ago,  was  regarded  '  a  master  piece,'  and  one  who  could  play  it  was 
indeed  a  proficient  in  the  science  of  music ;  and  so  it  was  that  the 
'  roar  of  artillery '  was  sure  to  be  called  for  at  the  close  of  an  even- 
ing visit  or  entertainment  at  our  grandfather's.  The  Squire's 
daughter  Abby  excelled  as  a  reader,  and  it  is  said  that  Edward 
Everett  afiirmed  on  one  occasion  that  he  received  as  much  pleasure 
from  hearing  her  read  one  of  the  plays  of  Shakspeare  as  from  seeing 
it  acted. 

Illustrative  of  her  noble,  generous,  unselfish  nature,  I  give  the 
following  incident  recorded  of  her  when  about  seven  years  of  age. 
In  expectation  of  a  visit  to  her  Uncle's  in  Pembroke,  Abby's  ward- 
robe had  been  i*eplenished  with  a  new  bonnet,  vandyke  and  a  pair 
of  long  mitts.  When  Sunday  came  these  things  were  no  where  to 
be  found,  though  her  aunt  and  cousins  hnew  that  after  they  had 
been  seen  and  duly  admired  on  Abby's  arrival,  they  had  been  care- 
fully placed  on  the  bed  in  the  spare  room.  Greatly  perplexed  as 
to  what  could  have  become  of  them,  her  aunt  communicated  the 
fact  of  their  disappearance  to  her  niece,  expecting  a  flood  of  tears 
would  follow  the  announcement.  What  was  her  surprise  when 
Abby  laughingly  replied  ;  '  Oh !  auntie,  I  dave  them  all  away  to 
one  poor  little  girl  who  had  no  nice  things  !'  It  was  soon  ascertained 
that  a  beggar  with  a  little  child  had  passed  through  the  village  a 
day  or  two  before,  and  had,  by  the  road-side,  so  touched  Abby's 
heart  by  the  recital  of  her  wants  and  woes,  that  she  had  rushed  into 
the  house  and  without  a  word  to  any  one,  taken  and  given  the  things 
to  the  child,  saying  by  the  act :  '  Here  thy  needs  are  greater  than 
mine.''  Whether  as  a  penalty,  or  because  she  would  not  of  her  own 
choice  stay  at  home,  I  know  not,  but  she  went  to  church  that  Sun- 
day with  a  handkerchief  tied  over  her  head. 

During  the  summer  of  1858,  I  spent  a  few  days  at  a  hotel  in 
Franconia.  Opposite  at  table  sat  an  elderly  lady  who  kept  her  eye 
constantly  fixed  on  me ;  seemed  anxious  to  engage  me  in  conversa- 
tion, for  what  purpose  I  could  not  divine.  The  interest  manifested 
attracted  the  notice  of  the  friend  in  company  with  me.  At  last,  on 
my  leaving  the  room,  she  ventured  to  interrogate  my  friend  as  to 
my  name  and  place  of  residence ;  the  reply  received  seemed  to  dis- 
appoint, for  she  was  sure  she  knew  no  one  by  the  name  living  in  the 
place  given,  and  yet  my  countenance  and  even  my  voice  seemed  so 
familiar !     The  next  morning  we  met  again  and  in  the  course  of  con- 


94  THE    DESCENDANTS    OF 

versation,  I  said  something  about  the  pulling  down  of  old  land 
marks  in  Boston,  mentioned  the  probable  destiny  of  my  grand- 
father's estate  on  Federal  Street,  calling  him  by  name ;  her  look  of 
utter  astonishment  I  shall  never  forget  followed  by  the  exclamation : 
'  Whitman !  Whitman !  can  it  be  possible  that  I  am  talking  with 
a  daughter  of  my  dear  old  school  and  playmate  Abigail  Whitman ! 
I  see  it  all  now  ;  Oh !  your  voice  and  looks  have  so  impressed  me  !' 
The  lady  was  Madam  Candler,  the  mother  of  the  President  of  the 
Boston  Board  of  Trade.  From  her  I  learned  much  of  interest  rela- 
tive to  my  mother  as  a  school  girl  and  playmate ;  but  on  every- 
thing was  painted  the  same  gifted,  cheerful,  kind  hearted,  joke- 
loving  girl,  and  I  bless  God  for  the  pleasant  interview."

_  844.  Susanna  Thompson^,  b.  Nov.  2 1 ,  1S24 ;  has  resided  for  some 
sixteen  years  at  Swanzey  Center,  N.  H. ;  her  health  is  not  good, 
and  her  time  is  occupied  in  reading  and  writing,  and  when  health 
permits,  engaging  in  missionary  work,  and  occasionally  delivering, 
what  she  herself  calls  a  "  Lecture  Sermon ;"  the  following  taken 
from  a  local  paper,  will  be  of  interest  to  her  acquaintances  and 
friends : 

"  Sunday  we  gladly  accepted  an  invitation  to  visit  Spofford  lake, 
it  being  a  place  where  '  charms  by  nature  given,'  have  often  been 
spread  before  us— and  then  too  it  being  the  place  where  so  recently 
the  beloved  and  esteemed  Conly  and  Reitzel  met  their  sad  fate. 
When  resting  on  the  quiet  shores  of  the  lake,  the  beauties  of  which 
we  must  in  all  honesty  declare,  have  not  been  overdrawn,  we  were 
informed  that  at  Chesterfield  Factory  village  there  were  to  be  ser- 


96  THE    DESCENDANTS   OF 

vices  in  the  afternoon  and  evening,  conducted  by  a  lady  preacher  of 
some  note.  Never  having  heard  a  lady  preacher,  and  having  some 
curiosity  in  the  matter,  we  were  easily  persuaded  to  drive  on  and 
avail  oursslveg  of  this  opportunity  to  do  so.  By  way  of  proof  that 
our  expectations  were  not  raised  too  high  we  add,  that  we  remained 
to  both  services  and  returned  to  Brattleboro  by  moonlight.  Both 
sermons  evinced  uncommon  ability  and  were  impressively  delivered, 
some  parts  of  them  truly  eloquent  in  earnestness ;  the  style  of  writ- 
ing clear  as  well  as  earnest,  a  style  that  never  fails  to  mark  and  an 
indelible  mark  too — words  that  burn  into  the  soul.  The  personal 
appearance  of  the  speaker,  Miss  Thompson,  in  the  desk  is  unassum- 
ing, a  little  timidity  apparent  though  hardly  discernible,  unless  the 
listener  is  quite  near  and  watches  closely.  Miss  Thompson,  we

the  granddaughter  of  a  late  chief  justice  of  that  city,  and  daughter 
of  one  of  Boston's  old  and  widely  known  merchants.  For  several 
years  she  has  made  it  her  home  in  the  quiet  little  village  of  Swan- 
zey  Center,  N.  H.,  much  to  the  regret  of  her  many  friends  who 
prize  her  mental  abilities,  genial  companionship  and  fathomless 
kindness  of  heart.  We  would  say  to  all,  go  and  hear  her  if  an 
opportunity  presents,  and  you  will  be  well  repaid.  The  day  spent 
at  Chesterfield  will  be  long  and  pleasantly  remembered."

102  THE    DESCENDANTS   OF 

under  Dr.  Ide  of  Medway,  Mass.,  after  completing  his  studies  he 
went  to  Indiana  as  a  missionary  of  the  Congregational  Church  ; 
and  in  1830  settled  at  "Worthiugton,  Ind ;  his  health  was  such  that 
he  was  compelled  to  give  up  regular  ministerial  work,  but  his  long 
life  in  the  community  in  which  he  settled  as  a  farmer,  abounded  in 
good  works  for  the  Master.  For  many  years  he  was  the  only  teacher 
in  that  part  of  the  state,  and  he  made  his  pioneer  home  a  Christian 
School  for  the  youth  of  the  neighborhood  and  many  live  to  bless 
his  efforts. 

He  was  a  man  who  walked  with  God ;  he  daily  felt  the  presence 
of  his  Spirit  in  every  act  of  his  life ;  he  asked  God's  blessing  and 
divine  guidance  in  every  act ;  he  labored  in  every  way  to  promote 
the  highest  and  best  interest  of  church  and  society  ;  his  life  was  a 
success  in  the  true  sense  of  that  word  ;  he  gave  to  the  church  and 
society  a  family  of  educated  Christian  sons  and  daughters,  and  leaves 
behind  him  a  Christian  character  without  a  stain. 

In  his  later  years  he  was  a  great  sufferer,  but  he  bore  it  with 
patience,  looking  and  longing  for  deliverance  ;  when  too  infirm  to 
leave  his  home  he  wrote  or  dictated  messages  to  unconverted 
friends  and  neighbors,  urging  them  to  accept  Christ  as  their  Saviour ; 
when  it  became  apparent  that  the  end  was  near,  he  rejoiced  and 
with  joy  contemplated  his  release  ;  the  theme  dearest  to  his  heart 
was  the  holiness  of  heaven  and  the  joy  of  an  eternal  abode  with

Mercy,  daughter  of  John  Goodspeed  of  Barnstable,  b. 
Sept.  30,  1763;  d.  June  3,  1835;  he  graduated  at  Yale 
College,  1772  ;  studied  medicine  and  settled  for  a  time  at 
Plymouth;  about  1780  removed  to  West  Barnstable  then 
known  as  "  Gnob  Marshes,"  where  he  had  received  the 
appointment  of  teacher ;  among  his  pupils  was  his  future 
wife,  the  daughter  of  the  wealthiest  man  in  the  town,  gen- 
erally known  as  ''Silver  John;"  the  "silver"  was  popu- 
larly supposed  to  have  been  in  bars  and  gained  in  priva- 
teering ;  it  is  related  that  his  first  acquaintance  with  this 
young  lady  was  made  by  standing  her  up  in  one  corner  of 
the  school-room  upon  one  foot,  and  making  her  hold  a 
broom ;  attracted  by  her  father's  wealth,  for  she  was 
decidedly  inferior  in  education  and  refinement,  the  Doctor 
married  her  when  she  was  scarcely  nineteen;  after  this 
event  he  returned  to  Plymouth,  remaining  there  till  the 
death  of  his  mother-in-law,  when  he  settled  in  West  Barn- 
stable, practicing  medicine  and  using  his  wife's  fortune  as 
a  means  of  making  money,  loaning  it  at  high  rates  of 
interest ;  he  had  the  finest  farm  in  the  town,  and  was  one 
of  the  leading  physicians  of  his  day,  having  a  very  exten- 
sive practice ;  he  was  one  of  the  few  Methodists  of  that 
time,  and  erected  a  pulpit  in  his  kitchen,  and  assembled  his 
co-believers  there  for  service ;  in  politics  always  a  Demo- 
crat ;  in  dress  not  neat,  going  often  to  visit  his  patients  in 
his  stable  boots ;  as  distinguished  from  his  sous  he  was 
never  intemperate  except  in  his  temper,  and  many  stories 
are  told  more  creditable  to  his  strength  of  will  than  its 
control ;  his  wife  once  sold  his  best  cow  for  $40 ;  when 
the  Doctor  was  told  of  it,  he  replied:    ''I  can  afford  to 


110  THE    DESCENDANTS    OF 

keep  as  good  a  cow  as  "  so  and  so,  naming  the  purchaser, 
and  threw  the  money  into  tlie  fire ;  he  was  continually 
engaged  in  litigation,  particularly  with  a  neighbor,  Tom 
Block,  a  Scotchman ;  he  left  to  his  wife  the  use  of  a  large 
portion  of  her  money,  and  abandoned  to  her  injudicious 
care  the  welfare  and  training  of  the  children ;  she  had  a 
great  idea  of  the  importance  of  money,  and  the  laudable 
ambition  of  bringing  up  her  children  as  ladies  and  gentle- 
men, but  had  the  mistaken  idea  that  they  should  do 
nothing  in  the  way  of  work ;  the  result  was  that  the  sons 
were  kept  on  the  edge  of  shabby  gentility,  and  grew  up  to 
be  lazy  and  intemperate;  he  d.  July  30,  1824;  his  will 
was  burnt,  with  other  town  records,  Oct.  22,  1827  ;  in  it 
he  left  the  bulk  of  his  property  to  his  wife,  after  giving  a 
farm  to  an  old  servant,  one  Jonathan  Smith  (who  had  been 
with  him  twenty  years),  a  few  legacies  to  friends  and  a 
small  sum  of  money  to  his  children  ;  by  her  will  executed 
June  23,  1831,  she  left  to  each  of  her  daughters  $1000 
and  her  household  furniture ;  to  her  son  Josiah  $100 ;  to 
her  son  Jonas  $10 ;  to  her  sons  Samuel,  Cyrus  and  Isaac 
each  one-quarter  part  of  her  real  and  personal  property 
not  otherwise  disposed  of;  the  remaining  one-quarter  was 
left  to  Stephen  Bailey  and  Josiah  Whitman  in  trust  for  her 
son  Jonas ;  Stephen  Bailey  of  Wellfleet  was  appointed 
sole  executor ;  10  c.  I.  John*^ ;  II.  Jonas^ ;  III.  Sarah'^ ;

which  occurred  June,  1816,  was  said  to  have  been  has- 
tened by  intemperate  habits  ;  he  was  very  tall  and  of  fine

sons  being  meantime  engaged  in  playing  cards  in  the 
barn  ;  she  was  sent  out  of  town  to  school,  her  father  saying 
she  must  know  English  grammar  if  he  had  to  send  her  to 
Cambridge ;  at  one  time  she  taught  school  at  W.  Barn- 
stable ;  like  her  mother  she  was  tall  and  plain ;  attracted 
probably  by  her  money,  Mr.  Bailey  proposed  for  her  hand, 
but  even  at  the  risk  of  offending  her  father,  she  refused 
unless  he  would  give  up  the  itinerant  life ;  he  accordingly 
joined  the  Congregational  ministry ;  he  was  settled  at 
Nantucket,  Wellfleet  and  Dorchester ;  was  the  executor  of

for  the  purpose  of  obtaining  the  skeleton  ;  the  bones  were 
taken  to  Barnstable  in  the  coffin,  which  stood  for  many 
years  in  the  corner  of  his  father's  kitchen ;  the  act  was  dis- 
covered and  Josiah  left  the  State  settling  in  Cincinnati ; 
he  was  a  skillful  physician  but  intemperate ;  d.  unmarried,

112  THE    DESCENDANTS    OF 

1017.  VI.  SAMUEL«,b.  April  1,  1798;  m.  Rachel,  daugh- 
ter of  Asa  Jenkins  of  W.  Barnstable,  b.  Feb.  8,  1802 ;  d. 
Aug-.  30,  1851 ;  her  father  disapproved  of  the  match  and 
found  another  suitor  ;  she  was  sent  to  Boston  to  visit  in  the 
family  of  Daniel  Bacon,  who  lived  in  the  "  Colonade,"  a 
row  of  houses  on  Tremont  st,  facing  the  Common,  near 
Boylston ;  she  was  tall  and  very  pretty,  the  belle  of  the 
village,  and  Samuel  was  a  handsome  man  ;  he  followed  her 
to  Boston  and  persuaded  her  to  elope  with  him  and  be 
married  out  of  the  State,  which  they  accordingly  did  ;  upon 
their  return  home,  there  was  a  great  commotion,  and  doubts 
were  expressed  upon  the  legality  of  the  marriage,  as  they 
had  not  been  "published"  according  to  law;  there  is, 
however,  an  intention  of  marriage  filed  in  the  Town  Clerk's 
office,  July  2,  1825  ;  Samuel,  however,  could  never  show 
any  certificate  and  his  sister,  Mrs.  Bailey,  never  recognized 
her  sister-in-law  ;  he  was  educated  at  Bridgewater ;  of  fine 
appearance,  but  intemperate  and  idle ;  was  Captain  of  the 
Barnstable  Training  Company ;  the  favorite  son  of  his 
mother,  he  succeeded  in  obtaining  possession  of  the  home- 
stead upon  which  his  brothers  had  expended  large  sums  in 
improvements,  the  result  being  continued  law-suits ;  he  d. 
March  14,  1842 ;  his  will  was  executed  Jan.  17,  1842,  and 
a  codicil  Jan.  28,  1842  ;  he  directs  that  his  share  in  certain 
"  schooners  "  shall  be  sold  and  the  proceeds  invested  for  the 
benefit  of  his  son  John;  orders  a  tomb  to  be  erected  "in 
the  next  field  to  house  lot,"  the  money  to  come  from  the 
estate  of  his  brother  Josiah,  late  of  Cincinnati ;  according 
to  his  own  directions,  this  tomb  was  built  into  the  side  hill 
of  a  large  pasture  adjoining  the  house,  and  was  to  'be 
opened  on  sunshiny  days  that  he  might  get  the  benefit  of 
the  sun  ;  one  of  his  cronies  was  entrusted  with  this  mission, 
and  was  to  be  paid  for  it  out  of  the  estate  ;  these  directions 
were  carefully  observed  till  the  death  of  the  "  opener," 
when  they  were  discontinued ;  upon  the  sale  of  the  premi- 
ses, the  bodies  of  Samuel  and  his  wife  were  removed  to 


JOHN   WHITMAN    OF    WEYMOUTH.  113 

W.  Barnstable  and  buried  in  the  Jenkins  lot ;  the  tomb  is 
now  used  as  a  chicken  house ;  by  the  will,  he  left  to  his 
"  beloved  wife  Rachel "  all  his  household  furniture,  im- 
provements on  homestead  and  two  lots  of  land,  while  she 
remained  his  widow ;  anticipating  trouble,  he  made  the 
codicil,  where  he  recites  that  to  avoid  ambiguity  about 
"  wife,"  there  being  a  supposed  difficulty  in  proving  a  legal 
marriage,  that  "his  beloved  wife  Rachel"  is  a  daughter  of 
Asa  Jenkins  of  W.  Barnstable,  to  whom  he  was  married  in 
1825  ;  he  also  states  that  "  to  his  brothers  Isaac  and  Jonas, 
and  to  my  sisters  Sally  and  Mercy,  I  have  no  bequest  or 
legacy  to  make,  intended  to  make  none  in  my  will,  and 
make  none  now ;"  there  was  a  claim  made,  however,  by 
the  brothers,  and  by  direction  of  the  court  the  executor 
paid  them  some  $360 ;  his  total  estate  was  inventoried  at 
$6502.50  ;  his  widow  remained  in  the  homestead,  and  made 
a  home  for  her  son  John,  and  added  to  her  income  by 
keeping  boarders ;  she  finally  became  reconciled  to  her 
father  but  never  to  her  mother ;  a  woman  of  sweet  manners 
and  disposition,  and  always  retained  her  good  looks ;  in 
her  will,  executed  Aug.  19,  1851,  she  shows  great  anxiety 
to  protect  her  son  John  from  himself,  and  leaves  all  her 
estate  in  trust  for  his  benefit ;  there  were  several  children, 
but  one  of  whom  lived  to  maturity.

looking,  and  like  them  also  of  intemperate  habits ;  he  was 
educated  at  Bridge  water  and  taught  school  for  many  years  ; 
his  estate  inventoried  at  $4761  and  administration  was 
granted  to  his  brothers  Samuel  and  Isaac.

"  By  the  recent  death  of  Ford  Whitman,  Esq.,  this  community 
has  sustained  the  loss  of  one  of  our  most  respectable,  worthy  and 
highly  esteemed  citizens.  Mr.  Whitman  came  to  this  city  more  than 
twenty  years  since,  having  resided  before  that  time  in  Tamworth, 
N.  H. ;  he  was  many  years  a  member  of  the  Legislature  of  J^ew 
Hampshire,  and  secured  the  confidence  and  respect  of  all  by  his  integ- 
rity, consistency  and  faithful  discharge  of  all  his  public  and  private 
duties.  Mr.  Whitman  was  a  worthy  member  of  the  family  of  that 
name,  which  has  numbered  and  still  numbers  in  its  circle  so  many 
men  of  talents,  moral  worth  and  high  character  for  firmness  and 
consistency ;  he  was  a  man  who  thought  for  himself  and  having 
formed  his  opinions  from  reflection  and  observation  he  was  firm 
and  steadfast  in  maintaining  them  without  bitterness  or  denuncia- 
tion ;  he  was  a  good  specimen  of  the  pure  blood  of  New  England, 
as  it  came  down  to  us  through  the  honored  families  of  the  Old 
Colony ;  in  all  the  relations  of  life,  in  his  family  and  in  the  world, 
he  was  unostentatious,  consistent  and  faithful,  and  he  has  gone  down 
to  his  grave  in  the  maturity  of  his  years,  mourned  by  those  who 
knew  him  best,  and  leaving  to  his  bereaved  family  and  his  many 
friends  the  example  of  a  life  well  spent  in  the  discharge  of  life's 
duties;  6  c,  all  b.  Tamworth,  except  youngest.

134  THE    DESCENDANTS    OF 

"  At  a  meeting  of  ex-members  of  Armory  Fire  Engine  Co.  No.  4, 
Bangor,  lield  for  the  pm-pose  of  attending  tlie  funeral  of  our  Brother, 
Mr.  Newton  M.  Whitman,  it  was  unanimously 

Resolved^  That  in  the  death  of  our  Brother  Newton  M.  Whitman 
we  have  suffered  the  loss  of  a  friend  in  whom  we  could  confide  and 
a  man  we  could  trust  and  love.  In  our  own  sorrow  we  would  tender 
our  sympathy  to  the  mother,  sisters  and  other  relatives  in  their 
greater  grief,  and  would  kindly  remind  them  that  the  departure  of 
friends  from  earth  is  but  the  progress  of  those  friends  to  a  spir- 
itual birth ;  that  what  we  call  death  is  only  a  step  to  a  higher  life, 
and  though  natural  affections  are  pained  thereby  all  spiritual  affec- 
ions  should  find  cause  for  joy  since  Jehovah  in  his  providence 
'  doeth  all  things  well.' 

Resolved^  That  we  bear  our  strong  testimony  to  the  zeal,  fidelity 
and  skill  with  which  our  departed  brother  performed  all  his  duties 
as  a  member  of  our  company,  to  his  diligent  patriotism  and  public 
spirit  as  a  citizen,  and  to  his  moral  worth  as  a  man.  His  memory 
to  us  is  precious  and  with  his  name  are  associated  many  honorable 
deeds  and  a  life  of  uniform  consistency  and  uprightness. 

Resolved^  That  a  copy  of  these  resolutions  be  signed  by  the  Com- 
mittee and  entered  upon  records  of  Old  Armory  Engine  Co.  No  4.

'*  Obituary. — Entered  into  rest.  On  Monday  evening,  June  21, 
at  the  age  of  62  years,  the  Rev.  Dr.  Patrick  Henry  Greenleaf, 
Rector  of  Emmanuel  Church,  Brooklyn,  after  a  laborious  and  faith- 
ful service  of  more  than  thirty  years  in  the  sacred  ministry  of  the 
church. 

The  deceased  was  born  in  the  State  of  Maine,  and  was  a  son  of 
the  late  Hon.  Simon  G-reenleaf.  After  graduating  at  Bowdoin 
College,  Me.,  he  devoted  himself  for  a  few  years  to  the  study  of 
law,  but  his  attention  was  soon  turned  to  the  work  of  the  ministry. 
He  pursued  his  theological  studies  under  Bishop  Doane,  and  was 
ordained  Deacon  by  Bishop  Griswold.  During  that  period  of  hie 
long  and  useful  ministry  which  preceded  his  labors  in  Brooklyn,  he 
was  connected  with  the  Dioceses  of  Massachusetts  and  Pennsylvania 
in  the  east,  and  Indiana  and  Ohio  in  the  west.  For  several  years  he 
was  Rector  of  St.  John's,  Charlestown,  Mass.,  also  of  St.  Paul's, 
Cincinnati,  previous  to  his  removal  to  Brooklyn,  In  1862  he  be- 
came the  Rector  of  Emmanuel  Church  in  the  last  named  city,  a 
Parish  which  has  prospered  greatly  under  his  spiritual  charge.  His 
distinguishing  traits  were  a  steadfast  devotion  to  duty  as  a  parish 
priest ;  a  forwardness  in  encouraging  and  sustaining  works  of  mercy 
and  charity  in  the  Master's  name  ;  singular  impressiveness  in  pulpit 
ministrations,  possessing  talent  in  this  respect,  as  we  believe,  above 
the  average  of  his  contemporaries  in  the  ministry ;  and  yet  his  ser- 
mons were  ever  characterized  by  spirituality  of  tone  and  manly 
earnestness,  and  eminently  profitable  to  the  hearers.  He  possessed 
also  a  remarkable  aptitude  for  teaching,  his  presentations  of  religious 
truth  being  distinguished  for  clearness,  conciseness  and  force  of 
illustration.  As  an  instructor  of  the  younger  members  of  the  flock 
he  had  few  superiors. 

Suddenly,  and  under  unwonted  circumstances,  reminding  us 
most  forcibly  of  the  uncertainty  of  all  human  plans,  while  within 
the  walls  of  that  church  where  he  publicly  ministered,  God  called 
away  his  faithful  servant,  now  grown  old  and  feeble  after  years  of 
patient  toil. 

We  sorrow  for  him,  but  not  as  those  without  hope,  for  '  blessed 
are  the  dead  who  die  in  the  Lord.'  '  They  rest  from  their  labors, 
and  their  works  do  follow  them.' 

At  a  meeting  of  the  Clergy  of  Brooklyn  and  vicinity,  called  by 
the  Rt.  Revd.  the  Bishop  of  Long  Island  (Bishop  Littlejohn)  and 


JOHN   WHITMAN    OF   WEYMOUTH.  147 

held  in  the  vestry  room  of  Emmanuel  church,  on  the  nativity  of  St. 
John  the  Baptist's  day,  June  24,  1869,  the  following  minute  and 
resolutions  were  unanimously  adopted  : 

It  having  pleased  our  Heavenly  Father  in  his  inscrutable  wisdom 
to  call  away  from  the  scene  of  his  earthly  labors,  the  Rev.  Patrick 
Henry  Greenleaf,  D.D.,  Rector  of  Emmanuel  church,  and  our  much 
beloved  and  respected  brother  and  fellow  laborer  in  the  ministry  of 
the  church  of  Grod ;  therefore, 

Resol/ved,  That  while  we  bow  with  humble  submission  to  this 
sudden  and  painful  dispensation,  we  cannot  part  with  one  whom  we 
have  known  so  long  without  giving  expression  to  our  high  apprecia- 
tion of  his  manly  character,  of  his  rare  intellectual  gifts  and  ripe 
culture  and  consecration  with  entire  devotion  to  the  service  of  God's 
kingdom  ;  of  his  unswerving  attachment  to  the  principles  and  usages 
of  our  communion,  and  of  his  genial  conversation  and  friendship, 
which  have  rendered  the  intercourse  of  many  years  profitable 
and  pleasant  to  remember. 

Resolved,  That  we  bear  our  united  testimony  that  the  church  in 
our  city,  in  its  various  plans  and  efforts  for  extension  and  useful- 
ness, and  in  its  institutions  of  charity,  has  been  called  to  part  with 
a  most  valued  counsellor  and  aid  ;  one  whose  ready  legal  knowledge, 
acquired  in  early  life,  and  whose  wise  and  mature  experience  were 
united  with  an  interest  always  marked  and  outspoken,  and  with  a 
zeal  in  all  good  works  unabated  by  the  infirmities  of  advancing  age. 

Mesolved,  That  in  the  loss  which  the  wardens,  vestrymen  and 
parishioners  of  Emmanuel  Church  have  suffered  in  the  removal  of 
their  pastor  and  associate,  who  was  untiring  in  his  devotion  to  their 
welfare,  and  whose  earnest  prosecution  of  all  the  details  of  parochial 
work,  not  only  in  the  church  and  family,  but  in  the  schools  he 
established  and  loved  to  foster  for  the  nurture  and  care  of  the  lambs 
of  the  flock,  we  desire  to  express  our  sincere  sympathy  and  condo- 
lence, and  to  console  them  with  the  recollection  of  blessed  promise 
of  rest  and  reward,  which  are  the  inheritance  of  His  faithful  ser- 
vants when,  worn  out  in  their  Master's  service  on  earth,  they  are 
translated  hence  to  the  fold  of  the  chief  Shepherd  and  Bishop  of 
our  souls. 

Resolved,  That  we  tender  to  the  bereaved  widow  and  family  of 
the  deceased  assurances  of  our  affectionate  respect  and  sympathy, 
with  the  prayer  that  He  who  has  smitten  them  so  sorely  may  endow 
their  souls  with  meekness  and  resignation  under  the  trial,  and  in 
this  dark  hour  of  sorrow  may  lift  up  the  light  of  His  countenance 
upon  them,  and  give  them  peace. 


148  THE    DESCENDANTS    OF 

Resolved^  That  a  copy  of  the  foregoing  resolutions  be  transmitted 
to  the  vestry  of  Emmanuel  Church,  to  the  family  of  the  deceased, 
and  to  the  church  papers  for  publication, 

(Signed)  Jacob  W.  Diller,  Chairman. 

T.  Strafford  Drowne,  Secretary. 

At  a  meeting  of  the  vestry  of  Emmanuel  Church,  South  Brooklyn, 
held  on  Tuesday  evening,  the  29th  day  of  June,  1869,  the  following 
minute  and  resolutions  were  unanimously  adopted  : 

Whereas,  it  has  pleased  Almighty  God  in  His  Allwise  Provi" 
dence  to  remove  from  us  our  beloved  Rector,  the  Revd.  Patrick 
Henry  Greenleaf,  D.D.,  to  whose  well  directed  efforts  and  untiring 
energy,  under  God,  we  owe  that  measure  of  prosperity  which  has 
fallen  to  our  lot  during  the  seven  years  of  his  ministry  among  us ; 
therefore, 

Resolved.,  That  while  we  bow  in  humble  submission  to  this  afflic- 
tive dispensation  of  our  Heavenly  Father,  we  cannot  help  feeling 
that  this  Parish  has  met  with  a  loss  that  is  well  nigh  irreparable. 
As  our  Rector  and  the  Ambassador  of  Christ,  he  delivered  his  mes- 
sages of  love  and  mercy  so  as  to  speak  to  our  hearts  and  influence 
our  lives ;  while  as  our  spiritual  father  and  our  friend  his  social, 
genial  characteristics  can  never  be  forgotten  by  any  who  have  ever 
been  Mdthin  the  sphere  of  their  influence. 

His  whole  pastoral  life  among  us  has  been  marked  with 'such  self- 
sacrificing  zeal  and  affectionate  interest  and  earnestness  of  purpose 
to  ensure  our  welfare,  as  to  demand  from  each  one  of  his  parishioners 
the  tribute  of  a  grateful  and  enduring  memory.  Called  away  in  a 
moment  from  the  midst  of  his  dearly  loved  labors,  he  leaves  us,  in 
his  death,  as  he  always  presented  to  us  in  his  life,  an  example 
of  Christian  resignation  to  the  Divine  will,  and  a  solemn  warning 
to  be  ready  when  the  Master  calls  us  home. 

Resolved,  That  we  tender  to  Mrs.  Greenleaf  and  the  other  mem- 
bers of  his  family  our  respectful  sympathy  in  this  time  of  their 
bereavement.  We  would  ask  for  them  that  same  sustaining  power, 
in  the  hour  of  trial,  which  he  so  largely  enjoyed.  And  when  this 
dark  shadow  has  passed  away,  we  would  remind  them  of  his  virtues 
and  the  evidences  of  his  usefulness  and  influence  which  will  long 
remain  behind  in  the  Parish  of  Emmanuel. 

Resolved,  That  these  resolutions  be  recorded  at  length  in  the 
minutes  of  the  Yestry  and  that  a  duly  certified  copy,  signed  by  the 
clerk,  be  forwarded  to  Mrs.  Greenleaf.

whom  neither  money  nor  emolument  of  any  kind,  could  induce  to 
practice  any  misrej)resentation,  trick,  artifice  or  injustice  ;  he  was 
not  an  advocate ;  rarely  engaged  in  trials  before  a  jury,  or  even 
before  the  bench,  but  his  integrity,  punctuality,  diligence  and  care- 
fulness brought  him  a  large  oflfice  business,  and  he  was  present  to 
attend  to  it,  at  all  proper  hours  until  age  and  infirmity  prevented  ; 
in  a  word  he  minded  his  own  business  and  that  of  his  clients,  and 
was  utterly  devoid  of  the  ambition  of  making  a  figure  in  the  world ;"

and  secured  the  conviction  of  a  Mr.  Brett  for  selling  liquor  contrary 
to  law,  in  retaliation  for  which,  some  of  the  Brett  party  printed  in 
large  letters  on  Mr.  Whitman's  house,  the  inscription  "  New 
England  Rum"  and  on  the  church  edifice  "Cold  Water  Band;" 
he  d.  Jan.  26,  1862  ;  the  following  obituary  notice  appeared  in  the 
No.  Bridgewater  Gazette,  Feb.  12,  1862  : 

"  Obituary. — Died  in  E.  Bridgewater,  Jan.  26th  Dea.  Nathan 
Whitman,  aged  65  years  and  9  months. 

The  departure  of  this  good  man  suggests  something  more  than 
the  usual  newspaper  notice  ;  and  it  is  with  a  mournful  pleasure  that 
these  lines  of  remembrance  are  now  penned. 

Dea.  Whitman  was  born  in  this  town,  April  26,  1796.  Early  in 
life  he  left  the  home  of  his  youth,  and  worked  at  the  trade  of  a 
mason  in  Boston.  Applying  himself  with  great  diligence  to  his 
daily  duties,  prosperity  attended  his  efforts,  and  after  a  few  years 
he  returned  in  1830  to  his  native  town,  where  he  purchased  a  farm, 
and  for  the  remainder  of  his  days  engaged  in  husbandry.  That  he 
was  successful  in  this  pursuit,  the  records  of  the  Plymouth  County 
Agricultural  Society  testify  in  the  premiums  often  awarded  him 
for  his  abundant  crops  and  his  valuable  stock  of  cattle  ;  and  that 
confidence  was  placed  in  his  judgment  is  to  be  inferred  from  his 
often  being  placed  on  committees  connected  with  the  above 
association. 

His  return  to  this  town  was  at  a  time  when  the  friends  of  the 
temperance  cause  were  beginning  to  exert  themselves  to  relieve  the 
community  of  the  frightful  tide  of  woes  which  the  traffic  in  ardent 
spirits  had  caused  to  sweep  over  our  land.  It  required  not  a  small 
degree  of  moral  courage  at  that  time  to  face  the  foes  of  human  wel- 
fare who  were  striving  to  keep  open  the  sluices  of  destruction.  He 
labored  undauntedly  in  this  work,  and  the  community  at  this  day  is 
enjoying  the  benefit  of  his  labors.  It  was  through  his  influence 
that  an  article  was  introduced  into  the  regulations  of  the  '  Union  ' 
Church,  making  it  indispensable  that  the  candidate  for  admission 
should  assent  to  the  pledge  of  total  abstinence  from  the  use  of  in- 
toxicating liquors  as  a  beverage. 

Probably  the  greatest  inducement  for  him  to  fix  his  residence 
permanently  here,  was  that  he  might  promote  the  cause  of  religion. 
He  immediately  united  with  the  '  Union  Congregational  Church,' 
and  was  soon  elected  one  of  its  officers.  He  remained  connected 
with  this  Society  till  1849,  when,  on  the  formation  of  the  '  Trin- 
itarian Congregational  Church,'  he  united  with  the  latter,  and  him- 
self and  the  late  lamented  Francis  Packard  were  chosen  its  deacons. 


170  THE   DESCENDANTS   OF 

He  held  for  some  time  the  office  of  superintendent  of  the  '  Union ' 
Sabbath  School,  and  afterwards  of  that  of  the  new  Society  with 
which  he  was  connected  ;  and  faithfully  did  he  fulfill  the  duties  of 
this  important  office. 

A  man  of  ceaseless  industry,  early  and  late  at  his  daily  labors,  he 
seemed  to  realize  the  force  of  the  scriptural  injunction  ;  'Whatso- 
ever thy  hand  findeth  to  do,  do  it  with  thy  mio^ht.'  He  took  a  strong 
interest  in  the  education  of  the  youth  of  our  town  and  community, 
in  the  cause  of  human  liberty,  and  in  missions.  His  ardent  interest 
in  the  cause  of  Christ  led  him  to  devote  much  of  his  time  and  sub- 
stance to  the  promotion  of  religious  institutions,  and  the  advance- 
ment of  the  Redeemer's  kingdom  on  earth.  Perhaps  no  one  in 
this  town  ever  contributed  annually  more  for  this  purpose  than  he. 
To  the  poor  and  friendless  he  was  always  ready  to  render  sympathy 
and  relief.  He  was  ever  a  faithful  friend  and  counsellor  to  his  ex- 
cellent Pastor,  who  by  this  removal  has  been  painfully  bereaved, 
and  a  void  is  left  which  may  not  be  easily  filled.  Happy  will  it  be 
for  us  who  remain  if  we  keep  in  view  those  worthy  men  who  have 
striven  to  follow  in  the  steps  of  their  Divine  Master ! 

'  Though  dead,  they  speak  in  reason's  ear, 

Their  bright  examples  Kve  ; 
Their  faith,  and  hope,  and  pious  deeds. 
Still  fresh  instruction  give.'  "

"  'Mustered  Out.' — With  feelings  of  sadness  came  the  news  to 
the  writer  of  the  death  of  Nathan  D.  Whitman,  No.  584  Seventh 
street,  which  occurred  on  Saturday  last.  Quietly  since  his  soldier 
life,  has  he  moved  in  our  community,  although  for  many  years  a 
resident.  Still  but  little  was  known  of  him  and  his  noble  record  as 
a  soldier.  On  April  20,  1861,  a  meeting  of  the  citizens  of  E. 
Bridgewater  was  called,  for  the  purpose  of  forming  a  company  for 
the  war  ;  on  the  27th  of  April  the  company  was  formed  and  Nathan 
D.  Whitman  was  chosen  1st  Lieutenant.  Early  in  May  the  com- 
pany left  for  the  seat  of  war  and  three  days  later  were  facing  rebel 
cannon  in  Virginia,  and  were  at  the  front  for  the  next  three  years, 
and  the  stars  and  stripes  had  no  truer  defender  than  was  Lieut. 
Whitman.  That  service  to  him  was  severe,  as  in  the  regiment  to 
which  he  was  attached  he  was  engaged  in  the  following  battles  '• 
Big  Bethel,  Hampton  Roads,  Gaines  Mills,  Peach  Orchard,  Savage 
Station,  White  Oak  Swamp,  Glendale,  Malvern  Hill,  South  Moun- 
tain, Antietam,  CenterviUe,  Fredericksburg,  Yicksburg,  Jackson, 
Blue  Springs,  Campbell  Station,  Knoxville,  Wilderness  and  Spot- 
sylvania. The  marches  of  thousands  of  miles,  the  camps  by  '  Dismal 
Swamp '  and  the  no  less  dismal  camping  ground  by  the  Mississippi 
river,  all  contributed  to  his  final  muster  out  from  our  ranks  and 
muster  into  the  ranks  of  the  com  cades  gone  before.  Yes,  into  the 
ranks  of  dear  ones  of  his  own  family  circle  so  recently  gone.  He 
was  a  kind  husband  and  father  as  well  as  a  true  comrade.     Promi-

nent  amongst  the  flower  pieces  placed  about  him  was  a  beautiful 
pillow,  on  which  was  the  one  word  '  Comrade,'  the  gift  of  the  29th 
Mass.  Reg't  Association.  Gen.  J.  H.  Barnes,  formerly  commander 
of  the  regiment,  was  present  with  other  comrades,  and  the  scarred 
and  maimed  condition  of  his  comrades  present  at  the  funeral  told 
more  plainly  than  words  what  the  silent  comrade  had  passed 
through.  He  has  gone  from  the  '  Grand  Army'  here  to  be  num- 
bered with  the  Grand  Army  above."

opportunities  that,  at  the  age  of  16,  he  taught  his  first  country  school ;

West  and  located  at  Kansas  City,  and  became  manager  of  the  Kansas 
City  Journal ;  his  management  of  this  paper  met  with  the  greatest  suc- 
cess, its  circulation  was  trebled,  and  the  stock  which  cost  him  $114  in 
1880,  he  sold  in  1884  for  $400  a  share  ;  Oct.,  1884,  he  purchased  the  Min-

b.  March  14,  1808  ;  d.  Nov.  29,  1847 ;  when  8  years  old  he  was 
sent  to  Plainfield,  Mass.,  to  the  care  of  his  paternal  grandfather, 
Dea.  Samuel  Whitman,  for  education  and  training;  he  remained 
ten  years,  visiting  his  mother  at  Rushville  once  during  that  inter- 
val ;  while  in  Massachusetts  he  began  a  course  of  Latin  under  Rev. 
Moses  Hallock,  and  after  returning  to  Rushville  continued  his 
studies  under  Rev.  David  Page ;  his  heart  was  set  upon  entering 
the  ministry,  but  his  brothers  opposed  his  wishes  on  the  ground 
that  his  limited  means  would  compel  him  to  be  a  charity  scholar, 
and  they  persuaded  him  to  take  up  the  study  of  medicine  instead  ; 
he  graduated  at  Fairfield,  N.  Y.,  receiving  his  diploma  as  a  physician 
in  the  year  1824 ;  he  began  the  practice  of  medicine  in  Canada, 
but  in  four  years  returned  to  Rushville,  it  seems,  with  some  hope 
of  renewing  his  cherished  plans  for  entering  the  ministry;  circum-

stances  still  forbade,  and  lie  again  settled  down  to  the  practice  of 
medicine  at  Wheeler,  Steuben  Co.,  N.  Y.,  where  he  remained  four 
years  more ;  in  the  spring  of  1835  Dr.  Whitman  accepted  a  com- 
mission from  the  A.  B.  C.  F.  M.  as  missionary  to  the  North  Arneri- 
can  Indians,  and  in  company  with  Rev.  Samuel  Parker  made  his 
way  as  far  west  as  the  rendezvous  of  the  American  Fur  Company 
on  the  Green  River ;  in  the  fall  Dr.  Whitman  returned  east  to 
obtain  an  outfit  and  arrange  for  another  companion ;  his  marriage 
had  been  deferred  while  he  was  searching  for  a  colleague ;  chance 
gave  him  a  meeting  with  Rev.  R.  H.  H.  Spaolding,  who,  with  his 
bride,  was  on  his  way  to  a  mission  among  the  Osage  Indians ;  he 
had  but  a  hasty  wedding,  and  the  two  brides  started  in  the  face  of 
most  discouraging  reports  of  the  possibility  of  ladies  ever  crossing 
the  mountains ;  late  in  May,  1836,  they  reached  the  Loup  Fork  of 
the  Platte ;  June  6,  they  were  at  Laramie  ;  Sept.  2,  four  months 
from  the  Missouri  River  at  Council  Bluifs,  they  arrived  at  Walla 
Walla ;  the  journey  was  commenced  in  an  old  wagon,  which  every 
one  said  would  have  to  be  abandoned,  but  the  irrepressible  energy 
of  the  Doctor  overcame  all  obstacles,  and  the  possibility  of  crossing 
the  mountains  in  a  wheeled  vehicle  was  established ;  the  Oregon 
question  was  at  this  time  disturbing  the  relations  between  England 
and  America ;  the  Hudson  Bay  Company,  who  were  in  possession, 
were  unwilling  to  give  up  their  lands,  and  used  every  means  to  pre- 
vent a  knowledge  of  the  country  from  being  ascertained ;  the  whole 
question  finally  seemed  to  turn  on  the  possibility  of  a  wagon  cross- 
ing the  mountains,  a  point  already  proved  by  the  Doctor  ;  the  in- 
discreet conversation  of  the  English  at  Walla  Walla  betrayed  their 
plans  to  hold  the  country  at  all  hazards,  and  Dr.  Whitman  deter- 
mined to  defeat  their  schemes ;  in  Oct.,  1842,  he  suddenly  decided  to 
brave  the  perils  of  a  winter  passage  over  the  mountains,  and  reach 
Washington  before  Congress  adjourned  ;  twenty-four  hours  after 
he  had  heard  the  ardent  exclamation — "  Hurrah  for  Oregon ! 
America  is  too  late !  we  have  the  country,"  he  started ;  space  for- 
bids a  narrative  of  the  exposures  he  endured ;  twice  the  party  nearly 
perished  in  snow  storms,  and  nothing  but  Dr.  Whitman's  courage 
ever  enabled  them  to  accomplish  the  journey ;  March  3,  1843,  five 
months  after  leaving  home,  he  reached  Washington,  only  to  find 
the  Ashburton  Treaty  passed  by  the  Senate,  but  fortunately  no 
mention  was  made  of  Oregon  ;  the  sturdy  pioneer  presented  him- 
self to  Webster,  then  Secretary  of  State,  and  told  his  story ;  he  was 
blufily  informed  that  Webster  was  about  to  exchange  Oregon  for 
some  fishery  rights  in  Newfoundland  ;  as  a  last  hope  he  decided  to 


JOHN   WHITMAN    OF   WEYMOUTH.  239 

call  on  President  Tyler ;  after  hearing  him,  though,  the  President 
said :  "  Your  frozen  limbs  and  leather  breeches  attest  your  sincerity. 
Can  you  take  emigrants  across  the  mountains  in  wagons  ?"  "  Give 
me  six  months  and  I  will  take  a  thousand  emigrants  across,"  was 
the  reply ;  "  well,"  said  the  President,  "  if  you  take  them  across, 
the  treaty  shall  not  be  ratified ;"  with  much  effort  the  band  of 
emigrants  was  raised,  and  though  they  were  met  by  a  delegation  of 
the  Hudson  Bay  Company,  who  declared  it  was  impossible  to  cross 
the  mountains,  and  were  almost  persuaded  to  abandon  their  wagons, 
before  the  time  expired  succeeded  in  their  undertaking  ;  the  party 
had  gathered  on  the  Missouri  at  Westford,  June,  1843  ;  on  the  15th 
they  were  at  Fort  Hall,  and  Sept,  10  they  arrived  at  Walla  Walla; 
the  anger  of  the  Company  knew  no  bounds  ;  they  had  anticipated 
no  difficulty  in  retaining  a  eountry  about  which  so  little  was  known, 
and  their  disappointment  Avas  the  greater ;  the  Catholic  missionaries, 
too,  had  marked  the  settlement  for  their  own,  and  resented  the 
presence  of  American  missionaries  ;  the  country  having  been  gained, 
Dr.  Whitman  turned  himself  to  the  task  for  which  he  had  originally 
come,  and  but  little  is  known  of  his  life  for  the  next  four  years,  ex- 
cept as  shown  in  the  reports  to  the  American  Board  ;  the  Indians, 
undoubtedly  instigated  by  both  the  clergy  and  the  Company's  agent, 
were  not  friendly,  and  this  feeling  at  length  broke  out ;  JSTov.  29, 
1847,  Dr.  Whitman,  his  wife  and  seven  others  were  cruelly  massa- 
cred and  their  home  destroyed ;  his  work  had,  however,  been  accom- 
plished, and  the  foul  deed  only  recoiled  upon  its  instigators ;  they 
quickly  saw  their  mistake,  and  sought  to  throw  the  entire  blame 
upon  the  Indians  ;  history,  however,  has  not  held  them  blameless, 
though  no  positive  proof  of  their  complicity  could  be  obtained; 
an  appropriate  memorial  to  the  noble  missionary  has  been  created 
in  the  establishment  of  Whitman  College,  which  was  chartered  in 
1859  and  is  located  at  Walla  Walla;  the  following  is  from  a  letter 
written  by  Mr.  Perrin  B.  Whitman  : 

"Dr.  Marcus  Whitman  having  informed  himself  of  a  pending 
treaty  between  the  U.  S.  Government  and  Great  Britain,  which 
would  deprive  our  government  of  this  glorious  west,  decided  to 
proceed  to  Washington  at  once  and  stay  such  proceedings  if  possi- 
ble ;  he  left  his  station,  Oct.  8,  1842,  with  one  traveling  companion, 
the  Hon.  A.  L.  Lovejoy,  who  continued  with  him  as  far  as  Taos, 
Mexico,  where  sick  and  discouraged  he  remained  until  spring,  when 
he  joined  Dr.  Whitman  (then  on  his  return)  at  Fort  Laramie.  It 
seems  difficult  to  do  justice  to  the  courage  and  fortitude  of  the 


240  THE   DESCENDANTS   OF 

Doctor,  who  now  pushed  forward  (with  only  a  Mexican  guide)  by 
the  way  of  Santa  Fe,  traveling  now  through  a  wilderness  and  over 
the  most  dreary  and  desolate  mountains  and  barren  and  trackless 
wastes  uninhabited  by  man.  In  vain  storms  and  wintry  torrents 
opposed  him — his  resolution  surmounted  every  difficulty;  he 
buffeted  his  way  across  rapid  streams  amid  floating  ice,  traveling 
for  hours  with  his  clothes  frozen  upon  him,  subsisting  for  days 
upon  mule  and  dog  meat.  He  arrived  in  Washington  early  in 
March.  After  a  futile  effort  with  Webster,  then  Secretary  of 
State,  he  obtained  an  interview  with  Tyler,  the  President,  who 
listened  with  more  attention  and  respect  to  his  views ;  he  pre- 
sented to  him  the  vast  wealth  and  resources  and  natural  advantages 
of  the  country,  which  resulted  in  his  obtaining  a  promise  from 
Tyler  to  stay  all  proceedings  touching  treaties  for  that  summer, 
giving  the  Doctor  an  opportunity  to  prove  the  bringing  of  wagons 
from  the  Missouri  River  to  the  Columbia  Kiver  either  a  failure  or 
success.  He  arrived  at  Wallula,  on  the  Columbia  River,  Sept. 
3,  1843,  establisMng  the  practicability  of  emigration  hy  wagon 
across  the  Rockies.  It  is  due  to  the  wonderful  energy  and  perse- 
verance of  this  one  grand  man  that  this  broad,  wide  west,  the  home 
of  so  many  happy,  prosperous  Americans,  was  saved  to  our  govern- 
ment ;  he  piloted  the  first  emigration,  a  party  of  1000  souls,  across 
the  plains,  and  yet  this,  pioneer  hero,  to  whom  the  country  owes  so 
much,  sleeps  on  the  mission  grounds  (now  a  farm),  where  he  met 
his  death  at  the  hands  of  merciless  savages,  in  a  grave  neglected 
and  unmarked  by  even  a  mayMe  slab."     1  c.

"  Obituary. — Alice  Wliitman  Wisewell,  born  in  Rushville,  Yates 
Co.,  K  Y.,  May  23,  1808 ;  died  at  Naples,  N.  Y.,  June  22,  1887, 
aged  79  years  and  1  month. 

On  Friday  of  last  week  (June  24,  1887)  was  laid  to  rest  in  Rose 
Ridge  Cemetery  one  of  the  oldest  residents  of  our  village  and  one 
much  beloved.  Mrs.  Wisewell  was  the  daughter  of  Beza  Whitman 
and  Alice  Green,  pioneers  to  Rushville,  N.  Y.,  at  the  beginning  of 
the  present  century.  She  was  married  to  Henry  F.  Wisewell, 
March  14,  1826,  and  with  her  husband,  in  Sept.,  1828,  came  to 
Naples  to  establish  a  home.  The  period  of  her  residence  here  covers 
almost  sixty  years. 

She  was  an  only  daughter.  Her  brothers  were  Augustus  Whit- 
man, Marcus  Whitman,  Samuel  Whitman,  Henry  G.  Whitman  and 
a  half-brother,  Oren  G.  Loomis.  These  brothers  were  all  especially 
well  known  in  this  section  during  their  lives,  and  one  of  them,  Dr. 
Marcus  Whitman,  is  well  known  throughout  the  United  States  for 
his  Christian  missionary  work  in  the  North-west,  and  for  his  patri- 
otic services  in  saving  Oregon  to  this  country.  Mrs.  Wisewell,  the 
frailest  member  of  the  family,  outlived  all  the  rest.  With  all  her 
legacy  of  ill  health  she  possessed  the  Whitman  endurance,  resolute- 
ness and  strength  of  character.  In  the  matter  of  memory,  judg- 
ment, cheerfulness  and  Christian  faithfulness  few  have  been  more 
remarkable.  She  kept  her  brightness  and  her  interest  in  all  that 
was  good  to  the  very  last.  She  especially  prized  the  friendship  of 
children  and  young  people  and  felt  the  keenest  sympathy  and  in- 
terest for  them.  She  was  never  the  One  to  say  '  The  old  days  were 
better  than  these.'     Her  face  was  set  forward  not  backward. 

After  living  with  the  husband  of  her  early  choice  for  fifty-five 
years  he  was  taken  from  her,  May  4,  1881,  at  a  time  when  she  was 
herself  so  ill  it  did  not  seem  possible  that  she  could  long  survive 
him.  But  her  wonderful  tenacity  of  life  stood  her  in  good  stead 
and  six  years  more  of  courageous,  useful  and  even  happy  living

were  spared  to  her.  These  last  years,  during  which  she  was  tread- 
ing the  very  verge  of  life,  made  familiar  to  her  the  exchange  of 
worlds  so  that  during  the  long  period  in  which  at  last  she  lay  so 
calmly  and  patiently  looking  deatli  in  the  face  she  was  simply  happy 
and  content.  In  her  case  nothing  was  left  to  -be  done,  nothing 
to  be  desired.  She  was  an  intelligent  Christian,  having  not  the 
shadow  of  a  fear  and  feeling  that  it  was  not  her  place  to  indulge 
in  the  faintest  regret. 

The  name  of  Mrs.  Alice  Wisewell  is  the  last  one  to  be  erased 
from  the  original  roll  of  the  First  Presbyterian  Church  of  Naples. 
Having  been  a  follower  of  Christ  and  a  member  of  the  church  at 
Rushville  from  the  age  of  fifteen,  she  was  one  of  the  original  mem- 
bers that  were  banded  together  in  the  Presbyterian  church  here. 

At  the  homestead  on  which  she  had  lived  almost  fifty  years,  and 
in  the  house  which  she  had  occupied  forty-six  years,  and  from  which 
only  one  other  spirit,  that  of  her  husband,  has  ever  taken  its  flight, 
surrounded  by  all  her  living  children,  on  Wednesday  afternoon, 
(June  22,  ISSY)  in  perfect  quiet  and  without  pain,  she  gently 
breathed  her  last.  Her  children  feel  that  it  was  the  beautiful  close 
of  a  beautiful  life,  and  that  in  the  memory  of  their  mother  they 
have  a  precious  legacy."

"  Golden  Wedding  of  Mr.  and  Mrs.  A  C.  Bates. — The  fiftieth 
anniversary  of  the  wedding  of  A.  C.  Bates  and  wife  was  celebrated 
Nov.  25.  There  were  present  of  the  children,  grandchildren, 
and  neighbors,  seventy-eight  persons.  Of  the  eight  children  who 
have  been  born  to  Mr.  and  Mrs.  A.  C.  Bates,  seven  were  living  and 
present,  one,  Mrs.  Louisa  Bisbee,  having  died  about  six  years  ago. 
Of  the  grandchildren  there  were  present  fourteen.  Mr.  Abner  C 
Bates  and  wife  have  been  residents  of  Michigan  about  twenty-nine 
years  and  he  has  been  almost  totally  blind  for  the  last  twenty  years. 
Many  and  continuous  have  been  the  hardships  and  privations  which 
this  pair  have  been  obliged  to  meet  on  account  of  his  afflictions  and 
pioneer  life  combined.  The  presents  were  munificent.  The  chil- 
dren's present  was  $50  in  gold  ;  a  lady's  gold  watch  by  Gen,  E.  N. 
Bates  and  wife  of  Chicago,  111. ;  B.  Gilbert  and  wife,  a  $10  gold 
piece ;  L.  0.  Gilbert  and  wife,  P.  "Weaver  and  wife,  $5  in  gold 
each;  Edward  Averill  and  wife,  Jas.  Y.  Orton  and  wife,  $2.50  in 
gold ;  and  others,  cash  to  the  amount  of  nearly  $10  ;  a  picture  of 
'  Christ  in  the  Temple '  by  the  Rev.  Cyrus  ^ates  of  Cleveland, 
Ohio ;  gold  spectacle  case  and  gold  tooth- pick  by  Mr.  and  Mrs. 
Johnson  and  Mrs.  Cornell ;  carving  knife  and  fork,  Mr.  and  Mrs. 
Turner  ;  silk  handkerchief,  Mrs.  Trautman.  The  occasion  was  one 
of  the  most  enjoyable  and  all  present  joined  in  wishing  this  aged 
pair  many  happy  years  yet  to  come.  Letters  of  congratulation  were 
received  from  Mr.  and  Mrs.  Almon  Gilbert,  Willoughby,  Ohio  ;  the 
Rev.  Cyrus  Bates  of  Cleveland,  Ohio  ;  Baxter  Pratt,  Westhanipton, 
Mass.  ;  James  A.  McKay,  Dakota ;  Mr.  H.  Lyon,  Wauseon,  Ohio  ; 
C.  E.  Davison,  Wayland,  Mich.  The  observance  was  at  the  home 
of  Hon.  E.  IST.  Bates,  one  of  the  five  sons.  The  letter  of  James  A. 
and  Charlotte  H.  McKay  is  appended : 

'  Mr.  and  Mrs.  Abner  C.  Bates — Ever  honored  and  dear 
friends  :  Your  card  of  invitation  to  your  golden  wedding  came 
duly  to  hand,  for  which  please  except  our  sincere  thanks,  and  the 
assurance  that  it  would  gladden  our  hearts  to  be  present  to-day  and 
take  you  by  the  hand  and  look  into  your  faces  once  more.  But  as 
long  distance,  with  other  reasons,  render  this  impossible,  we  are 
glad  that  we  may  communicate  to  you  our  interest — although  but 
feebly — through  the  medium  of  the  pen,  and  though  "  absent  in 
body  "  yet  as  present  in  spirit,  join  with  the  circle  of  friends  present, 
and  present  you  with  our  united,  warm,  sincere  and  hearty  congrat- 
ulations. To-day  marks  an  era  in  your  life  but  seldom  reached  by 
mortals.  Fifty  years  of  wedded  life  are  meted  out  to  but  few. 
Yet  from  these  golden  nuptials  you  are  permitted  to  look  back 


250  THE   DESCENDANTS    OF 

through  a  half  century  to  your  first  nuptial  day  when  you  joined 
hands  "  for  better  or  for  worse  "  and  commenced  the  journey  of  life 
together.  To  yourselves,  personally,  a  history  is  bound  up  in  this 
period  of  fifty  years.  They  span  the  activity  of  life,  and  are  stored 
with  associations  and  events  around  which  your  memories  will  often 
linger  with  fond,  prolonged  and  glowing  interest.  True  these  years 
have  not  been  one  prolonged  and  glowing  sunlight  without  any 
shadows,  nor  have  they  been  one  unmingled  shade.  But  as  night 
and  day,  sunlight  and  shade,  succeed  each  other,  giving  variation 
and  beauty  to  the  landscape,  so,  also,  have  joys  and  sorrows  come  to 
you,  and  prosperity  and  adversity  have  succeeded  each  other,  min- 
gled with  the  cares  and  anxieties  of  life,  only  to  develop  and 
cement  the  character  and  impart  a  variegated  beauty  to  the  land- 
scape of  life.  Children  have  been  born  unto  you  and  have  grown 
up  around  your  board  and  by  your  care,  and  have  gone  foi'th  into 
the  world  to  meet,  as  you  have  done,  the  battles  of  life,  and  do  the 
duties  of  manhood  and  womanhood,  or  falling  in  life's  conflicts,  have 
left  the  savor  of  a  life  well  spent  and  duties  well  done — a  blessed 
consolation  in  a  sorrow  for  which  this  world  has  no  balm.  Anon 
grandchildren  came  and  nestled  in  your  bosom  and  charmed  and 
gladdened  you  with  their  prattle  and  their  songs,  giving  life  a  new 
interest  and  adding  new  notes  to  its  joys  and  carrying  the  memory 
back  to  other  days  when  you  were  younger  than  now.  Thus  have 
your  years  come  and  passed  by,  a  river  of  life.  On  the  banks  of 
this  river  have  you  journeyed  lo !  these  fifty  years,  until  to-day, 
with  hearts  still  young,  but  with  minds  mature,  and  faces  the 
brighter  for  their  wrinkles,  and  heads  crowned  with  glory  and  with 
gray,  you  reach  your  golden  wedding  in  full  and  glad  fruition.  The 
outward  world,  too,  has  changed  in  this  period  of  fifty  years.  The 
changes  this  period  represents  in  this  and  in  other  lands  we  will  not 
attempt  to  enumerate.  Fifty  years,  the  most  stirring,  enterprising, 
and  eventful  in  all  earth's  history — the  most  progressive  in  all  social 
intellectual,  national  and  religious  advancement.  Despotisms  over- 
thrown, heathenisms  enlightened,  dynasties  changed,  nations  born, 
races  emancipated  and  enfranchised,  are  but  parts  of  the  achieve- 
ments of  these  fifty  years,  while  in  the  facilities  of  travel  attained, 
and  the  lines  of  thought,  communication  and  converse  stretching 
across  continent  and  underlying  the  seas,  distant  lands  have  been 
brought  near  each  other,  and  the  ends  of  the  earth  made  to  touch 
each  other.  All  this  change  and  progress  you  have  been  permitted 
to  witness  and  have  wondered  and  rejoiced  over  it.  And  now, 
dear  friends,  as  you  stand  to  day  upon  this  eminence  and  survey  in 


JOHN   WHITMAN    OF   WEYMOUTH.  251 

retrospect  the  accomplishments  of  life,  none  can  present  a  better 
record  or  have  better  reasons  for  rejoicing  over  their  life  work.  It 
is  not  necessary  for  us  to  remind  you  that  your  sun  will  go  down  and 
the  shadows  of  the  evening  come  on  apace.  All  this  you  have  an- 
ticipated and  long  since  provided  for.  We  express  not  only  our  own 
sincere  sentiment  but  that  of  all  present  when  we  say,  may  the  after- 
noon of  your  lives  be  greatly  lengthened  out  and  your  evening  be 
gilded  with  glory  and  brightness  accompanied  with  peace  and  rest. 
And  when  in  ripe  old  age,  "  full  of  years,"  you  are  called  to  your 
everlasting  home,  may  your  journey    of   life    terminate   in  glory, 

honor  and  immortality. 

Charlotte  H.  McKay, 

Casselton,  Dakota.'  James  H.  McKay. 

Growing  Old. 

Softly,  oh  !  softly  the  years  have  flown  by  thee, 

Touching  thee  lightly  with  tenderest  care  ; 
Sorrow  and  death  they  have  often  brought  nigh  thee. 

Yet  they  have  left  thee  but  beauty  to  wear, 

Growing  old  gracefully,  gracefully  fair. 

Far  from  the  storms  that  are  lashing  the  ocean, 
Nearer  each  day  to  the  pleasant  Home  Light, 

Far  from  the  waves  that  are  big  with  commotion. 
Under  full  sail,  and  the  harbor  in  sight. 
Growing  old  cheerfully,  cheerful  and  fair. 

Past  all  the  winds  that  were  adverse  and  chilling, 

Past  all  the  islands  that  lured  thee  to  rest, 
Past  all  the  currents  that  drew  thee  unwilling. 

Far  from  thy  course  to  the  land  of  the  blest. 

Growing  old  peacefully,  peaceful  and  blest. 
Never  a  feeling  of  envy  and  sorrow. 

When  the  bright  faces  of  children  are  seen. 
Never  a  year  from  the  young  wouldst  thou  borrow, 

Thou  dost  remember  what  lieth  between  ; 

Growing  old  willingly,  thankful,  serene. 

Eich  in  experience  that  angels  might  covet, 
Eich  in  a  faith  that  has  grown  with  thy  years, 

Eich  with  a  love  that  has  grown  from  and  above  it, 
Soothing  thy  sorrows  and  hushing  thy  fears, 
Growing  old  wealthily,  loving  and  dear. 

Hearts  at  the  sound  of  thy  coming  are  lightened, 

Eeady  and  willing  thy  hand  to  receive  : 
Many  a  face  at  thy  kind  words  have  brightened. 

It  is  more  blessed  to  give  than  receive. 

Growing  old  happily,  ceasing  to  grieve. 
Eyes  that  are  dim  to  the  earth  and  its  glory, 

Have  a  sweet  recompense  youth  may  not  know. 
Ears  that  are  dull  to  the  world  and  its  story. 

Drink  in  the  songs  that  from  Paradise  flow, 
^   Growing  old  gracefully,  purer  than  snow."

Carey ;  their  daughter,  Elizabeth  Carey,  m.  John  Whit-

school  education,  though,  like  most  farmers'  boys,  he  only 
attended  school  during  the  winter ;  at  the  age  of  seventeen 
he  was  apprenticed  to  Dea.  Carey  of  No.  Bridgewater  to 
learn  the  trade  of  "  shop  joiner,"  as  it  was  then  called ; 
after  leaving  Dea.  Carey,  he  went  to  work  for  Capt.  Daniel 
Noyes  of  Abington ;  the  times,  however,  were  dull  and 
the  French  war,  as  it  was  called,  was  then  raging,  and  in 
the  expedition  fitted  out  to  attack  Crown  Point,  he  was 


JOHN    WHITMAjST    of   WEYMOUTH.  259 

among  the  drafted  men  from  Bridge  water ;  his  elder 
brother,  Samuel,  who  had  accumulated  a  little  property, 
went  to  Boston,  and  furnished  him  with  the  means  to  pro- 
cure a  substitute ;  soon  after  this,  learning  that  there  was 
a  greater  demand  for  mechanical  labor  in  New  Jersey,  in 
company  with  a  son  of  Eleazer  Washburn  of  E.  Bridge- 
water,  he  went  to  that  State,  remaining  there  some  two 
years,  and  had  strong  thoughts  of  making  that  his  perma- 
nent home ;  his  father,  however,  had  just  lost  his  third 
wife,  and  he  had  a  sister,  whose  powers  had  been  so 
weakened  by  disease,  that  she  was  incapable  of  taking 
care  of  herself — urged  by  these  considerations,  he  decided 
to  return  home  and  take  charge  of  his  father  and  sister, 
settling  on  his  father's  homestead ;  during  the  first  year  of 
their  marriage,  he  and  his  wife  joined  the  church  in  E. 
Bridge  water,  and  endeavored,  to  quote  his  own  words, 
"to  walk  in  all  the  commandments  and  ordinances  of  the 
Lord  blamelessly;"  about  1775  was  chosen  deacon  of  the 
church,  an  office  he  held  till  his  advanced  age  rendered  it 
fitting  that  he  should  retire ;  at  the  commencement  of  the 
Revolutionary  war  he  was  chosen  Lieutenant  of  a  com- 
pany of  militia  under  Capt.  Alden,  which  office  he  held 
till  the  close  of  the  war ;  he  was,  however,  called  into 
service  but  twice,  and  only  once  went  into  camp,  when  he 
was  stationed  for  three  months  in  Rhode  Island  guarding 
the  shores ;  the  following  incident  has  been  sent  by  a 
member  of  the  family:  "After  the  war  he  walked  from 
Rhode  Island  to  E.  Bridgewater ;  when  almost  home,  he 
was  quite  discouraged  with  thinking  what  a  hard  time  was 
in  store  for  him,  as  it  was  late  in  the  season  and  his  crops 
not  planted,  etc.,  etc. ;  when  he  came  to  a  small  '  grog- 
shop,' he  thought  he  would  take  a  glass  to  revive  his 
spirits ;  he  went  in  and  bought  a  drink  of  grog,  for  which 
he  paid  eleven  dollars.  Continental  money ;  it  was  the  last 
drink  of  liquor  he  ever  took  and  he  lived  to  be  107  years 
old ;  he  was  a  strong  temperance   man   in   a  time   when

temperance  was  surely  not  the  fashion ;"  was  for  several 
years  selectman,  overseer  of  the  poor  and  assessor  of  taxes, 
but  his  retiring  disposition  prevented  him  from  being  put 
forward  for  offices  of  distinction ;  was  sometimes  called 
upon  to  act  as  arbitrator  in  matters  of  dispute  among  his 
neighbors,  and  great  deference  was  always  paid  to  his 
opinions ;  after  the  death  of  his  wife,  he  made  an  arrange- 
ment with  his  son  Alfred  to  take  charge  of  the  farm,  and 
he  boarded  with  him  the  remainder  of  his  days ;  he  d. 
July  26,  1842,  aged  107  years,  3  months,  22  days;  this  is 
the  date  as  given  on  the  grave- stone,  though  his  son 
Jason,  in  his  memoir  of  his  father,  says  he  died  ''  on  the 
night  of  the  19th  of  Jul}^,  1842  ;"  the  life  of  any  one  who 
attains  such  great  age  is  always  of  interest,  and  his  was 
especially  so ;  in  his  personal  habits  he  was  temperate, 
and  in  some  respects  abstemious,  being  sparing  in  the  use 
of  alcoholic  beverages,  and  but  seldom  indulging  in  the 
use  of  tobacco,  though  brought  up  under  the  influence  of 
his  father,  who  was  an  inveterate  smoker ;  he  seldom 
drank  tea  or  coffee,  though  this  habit  was  more  from 
reasons  of  economy  than  because  of  any  prejudices  on  the 
subject ;  it  cannot  be  said  that  he  had  any  particular 
habits  of  diet,  though  he  always  used  milk  very  freely, 
and  after  he  was  95  abstained  from  animal  food  for  a  few 
years,  subsisting  on  a  milk  diet,  but  he  thought  that  he 
was  not  quite  as  well,  so  resumed  the  use  of  meat,  though 
in  small  quantities ;  he  was  a  man  who  never  was  in  a 
hurry,  always  doing  every  thing  with  great  deliberation, 
but  he  was  also  never  idle,  so  that  he  accomplished  much 
more  than  those  who  acted  with  greater  haste. 

In  his  religous  opinions  he  was  liberal,  in  the  sense  that 
he  was  averse  to  all  extremes ;  he  had  great  reverence  for 
the  Bible ;  from  the  written  word  he  sought  to  form  his 
opinions,  but  he  was  willing  that  others  should  do  the 
same ;  he  lived  at  a  period  when  there  was  much  religious 
discussion  between  the  Calvinists  and  the  Arminians,  and 


JOHN   "WHITMAN    OF   WEYMOUTH.  261 

while  in  many  points  he  disagreed  with  both  schools,  he 
also  found  much  in  both  with  which  he  could  sympathize ; 
he  was,  however,  unwilling-  to  wear  any  sectarian  badge 
or  to  be  called  by  any  party  name  in  religion ;  he  called 
himself  a  "  Bible  Christian,"  and  in  the  religious  education 
of  his  children  he  cared  more  to  instill  into  their  minds  a 
deep  and  reverential  piety,  and  leave  all  doctrinal  ques- 
tions to  be  settled  as  in  their  own  matured  judgment 
seemed  best ;  acting  upon  this  freedom,  some  of  his  chil- 
dren embraced  views  and  doctrines  different  from  his  own, 
but  this  made  no  difference  in  his  treatment  or  feelings 
toward  them  ;  in  his  family  government  there  was  much 
of  firmness  and  decision,  but  nothing  of  severity ;  he 
seemed  to  place  more  reliance  upon  always  showing  before 
them  his  own  example  of  Christian  spirit  and  deportYnent 
than  in  talking  to  them  upon  the  subject ;  he  was  not  dis- 
tinguished by  any  striking  peculiarity  of  character,  but 
was  thoroughly  well  balanced ;  though  having  but  scanty 
opportunities  when  young  to  secure  a  liberal  education, 
he  appreciated  its  advantages  and  sent  three  of  his  sons  to 
college  ;  a  great  reader  in  his  later  years,  taking  an  interest 
first  in  practical  and  devotional  religious  works,  and  after 
that  in  the  history  of  the  country ;  he  was  universally 
cheerful  and  always  satisfied  with  what  was  done  for  him, 
and  was  ever  unwilling  to  give  trouble  even  when  his 
great  age  rendered  him  in  many  respects  dependent  on 
others;  he  would  say:  "I  would  not  make  you  so  much 
trouble  if  I  could  possibly  help  it ;"  the  last  few  years  of 
his  life  he  lost  his  eye-sight,  and  his  hearing  became 
greatly  impaired,  but  he  never  yielded  to  the  natural 
peevishness  of  old  age,  and  taking  care  of  him  was  much 
more  of  a  pleasure  than  a  burden ;  he  died  of  no  disease, 
but  the  energies  of  his  nature  became  exhausted  ;  "  when 
he  expired  there  was  no  struggle,  no  convulsion ;  the 
spirit  had  occupied  the  tenement  of  clay  until  it  was  worn 
out,  and  then  it  quietly  took  its  departure  and  passed  to

there  one  year ;  then  spent  a  year  at  school  in  Concord,  Mass.,  at

Alcotts,  Emersons,  Pratts ;  my  friendship  with  the  Alcotts  has 
continued ;  in  1('"58  I  came  to  Kansas,  where  I  worked  on  the  farm

Gleason  &  Whitman ;  while  my  life  has  been  a  varied  one,  there 
is  nothing  of  special  interest  connected  with  it ;  I  have  not  accu- 
mulated much  money,  but  we  own  a  pleasant  home  and  have  learned 
the  most  important  lesson  of  life — that  of  being  contented  with  our 
lot ;"  residence,  Lawrence,  Ks. ;  6  c.

Brief  Memoir  on  the  Rev.  Nathaniel  Whitman  by  his  Eldest  Son, 
H.  C.  Whitman  of  Cincinnati,  O. 

"The  necessarily  limited  space  allowed  for  this  memoir 
will  only  permit  a  very  imperfect  record  of  the  life  and 
character  of  Mr.  Whitman.  To  do  full  justice  to  his  char- 
acter and  the  labors  of  his  long  and  blameless  and  useful 
life  would  require  a  volume.     No  more  fitting  justification

for  such  memoir,  if  one  be  asked,  could  be  given  than  the 
following  truthful  and  touching  words  of  his  in  the  com- 
mencement of  the  funeral  sermon  preached  by  him  in 
Billerica,  Mass.,  upon  the  occasion  of  the  funeral  of  his 
venerable  colleague,  the  Rev.  Henry  Cummings,  D.D. : 

'  It  is  no  less  a  dictate  of  religion  than  the  impulse  of  a 
virtuous  heart  to  cherish  a  grateful  remembrance  of  those 
who  have  shone  as  lights  in  the  world.  By  embalming  in 
our  hearts  the  remembrance  of  the  great  and  good,  we  give 
honor  to  whom  honor  is  due,  provide  for  ourselves  the 
richest  consolation  under  bereavements,  and  become  stimu- 
lated to  the  pursuit  of  universal  excellence.' 

Mr.  Whitman  was  born  in  E.  Bridgewater,  Mass.,  Dec.  25, 
1785.  His  parents  were  Dea.  John  Whitman  and  Abigail 
Whitman.  His  father,  Dea.  John,  lived  to  the  great  age  of 
107  years  and  3  months.  The  subject  of  this  sketch  was,  on 
the  maternal  side,  the  fifth  in  descent  from  Captain  Miles 
Standish,  who  has  been  aptly  described  as  '  the  renowned 
soldier,  shield  and  defence  of  the  Pilgrims.'  Mr.  Whit- 
man's father,  Dea.  John,  was  not  a  man  of  wealth,  and  had 
a  very  large  family  ;  there  were  eleven  brothers  and  sisters 
by  last  wife  and  two  living  by  a  former  wife — in  all  thir- 
teen. Of  the  sons,  three — Nathaniel  Whitman,  and  his 
younger  brother  Bernard,  afterwards  a  Unitarian  minister 
settled  in  Waltham,  Mass.,  and  Jason  Whitman,  who  was 
also  a  Unitarian  minister  settled  at  Portland,  Me. — all  from 
early  youth  desired  to  obtain  a  liberal  education,  and  to 
become  religious  teachers.  I  have  often  heard  my  father, 
Nathaniel,  rejoice  that  his  parents  were  lovers  of  education, 
and  were  glad  to  do  all  they  could  to  aid  the  wish  of  their 
sons  to  acquire  such  an  education.  But  though  Mr.  Whit- 
man's father,  Dea.  John,  had  a  farm  and  other  means,  yet 
it  became  necessary  for  the  subject  of  this  memoir  to  de- 
pend mainly  on  his  own  energy  to  procure  the  means  to 
enable  him  to  secure  a  ministerial  and  theological  education ; 

and  to  this  end  he  labored  in  various  ways  assiduously.

THE    DESCENDANTS   OF 


His  father,  with  great  liberality  to  aid  in  this  laudable 
purpose,  gave  his  sons  '  their  time '  after  they  became  six- 
teen ;  and  my  father  improved  all  the  time  so  given  him  to 
earn,  in  various  ways,  money,  while  at  the  same  time  he 
was  forming  habits  of  industry  and  labor  which,  through 
his  long  life,  never  left  him.  He  says,  in  some  recollections 
of  his  life  which  he  left  in  writing :  '  No  forms  of  idleness 
were  seen,  or  allowed  to  be  seen,  in  our  family  ;  by  precept 
and  example  the  children  were  sedulously  trained  to  habits 
of  useful  industry.  Labor  such  as  was  demanded  by  the 
farmer-like  life  which  we  were  leading  was  an  Jionored  in- 
stitution with  usJ  And  my  father  says,  commenting  on  this 
rule  of  the  family :  '  We  were  thus  privileged  through  ne- 
cessity to  begin  life  aright  in  this  matter  of  personal  labor.' 
He  had  the  usual  opportunities  of  those  days  in  attending, 
in  the  winter,  the  common  school ;  and  his  evenings  were 
devoted  mainly  to  improvement  in  his  studies — reading, 
declamation,  writing,  etc.  His  father's  family  was  a  relig- 
ious one  ;  but  unlike  the  case  of  too  many  so-called  religious 
families,  so  wise  and  kind  and  liberal  in  word  and  deed 
were  his  parents,  that  the  daily  habit  of  family  prayers,  and 
the  conduct  of  the  members  being  governed  by  religious 
rules,  were  pleasant  and  only  added  to  the  charm  of  do- 
mestic life.  My  father  says  :  '  And  it  was  a  pleasure  and 
satisfaction  to  go  up  to  the  House  of  God  with  them  who 
kept  holy  time.'  The  whole  atmosphere  of  his  father's 
home  was  religious  without  bigotry,  moral  without  fanati- 
cism, intellectual  without  dogmatism,  gentle  and  refined, 
but  bracing  and  progressive,  its  government  firm  but  mild, 
and  mutual  love  and  affection  filled  the  hearts  and  dictated 
the  words  and  manners  of  all  its  members ;  so  was  laid  in 
this  blessed  family  circle  the  foundation  of  those  mental, 
religious,  moral  and  physical  habits  which  grew  with  my 
father's  years  and  ripened  into  the  rich  fruit  of  a  Christian 
scholar,  gentleman  and  a  firm  and  eloquent  advocate  of 
those  views  of  religion  he  deemed  true ;  of  a  tender  and 


JOHN   WHITMAN    OF    WEYMOUTH.  275 

Sj^mpathizing-  pastor  and  friend,  and  not  least  of  all,  a  wise, 
firm,  devoted,  generous,  loving  and  self-sacrificing  father 
and  husband,  whom  wife  and  children  looked  up  to  with 
confidence  and  respect,  and  loved  deeply  and  trustingly. 

My  father's  object  in  so  devoting  his  energies  to  the 
acquisition  of  a  liberal  education  was,  that  he  might  be- 
come a  religious  teacher.  He  says  in  his  recollections  :  'I 
cherished  the  purpose,  from  my  earliest  recollection,  of  get- 
ting a  public  education  if  it  should  prove  to  be  consistently 
in  my  power,  and  to  make  the  Christian  ministry  the  pro- 
fession to  which  I  would  aspire.'  It  was  not  pride,  or 
vanity,  or  any  selfish  motive  which  prompted  thi^  purpose  ; 
but  simply  his  desire  to  do  good  to  humanity  and  aid  in 
the  propagation  of  the  religious  doctrines  he  so  firmly 
believed  in,  as  essential  to  man's  happiness  in  this  world 
and  a  future  life.  Time  does  not  permit  me  to  give  in  de- 
tail the  struggles  and  sacrifices  my  father  made  and  en- 
dured to  secure  this  purpose.  By  all  the  proper  means 
attainable  by  labor,  school  teaching,  and  partly  aided  by 
loans  from  generous  friends,  he  at  last  was  fitted  to  enter 
Harvard  University,  which  he  did  in  1805,  with  distinction. 
His  talents  were  of  a  high  order,  and  he  had  a  remarkable 
memory.  He  had  special  aptitude  as  well  for  classical  as 
mathematical  studies,  and  during  his  entire  college  course 
he  took  high  rank  as  a  scholar  ;  and  he  enjoyed  the  respect 
and  confidence  of  all  the  faculty.  At  one  time,  during  his 
course,  he  was  assigned  by  the  faculty,  as  an  exhibition 
mathematical  part,  the  calculation  of  a  total  eclipse  of  the 
moon,  and  which  proved  to  be  exact.  He  was  beloved 
and  respected  by  all  his  fellow  students,  and  was  a  leading 
member  of  all  the  important  college  societies  or  '■  clubs '  as 
they  were  called,  which  were  supported  by  the  undergrad- 
uates— as  the  '  Aureus  Ramus '  or  Golden  Branch,  '  The 
Oratorical  Club,'  '  Hasty  Pudding  Club,'  '  Phi  Beta  Kappa 
Society,'  and  '  The  Moral  and  Religious  Club.' 

His  college  life  was  marked  by  hard,  close  study,  dili-

gent  reading  of  instructive  works,  much  attention  to  elocu- 
tion and  writing.  John  Quincy  Adams  was  then  the  teacher 
of  elocution,  and  his  able  Lectures  on  Elocution  were 
afterwards  published  in  two  volumes.  He  graduated  in 
1809  with  high  honor,  and  through  his  life  the  faculty  and 
his  fellow  students,  so  long  as  they  lived,  were  his  warm 
friends  and  admirers.  He  made  sacrifices  and  had  to  use 
rigid  economy  to  enable  himself  to  pass  through  college. 
He  was  aided  somewhat  from  the  '  Hopkins  fund,'  which 
was,  under  the  terms  imposed  by  its  donor,  to  the  extent 
of  its  annual  income,  appropriated  to  the  benefit  of  indi- 
gent students  judged  to  have  a  claim  on  it,  arising  from 
*  talents,  scholarship  and  character.'  His  sister.  Miss  Bathr 
sheba  Whitman,  a  lady  of  much  rank  as  a  teacher,  and 
very  generous,  and  who  lived  to  be  92,  kindly  aided  him 
from  her  earnings.  Other  friends  also  generously  contribu- 
ted. He  also  taught  school  in  vacations,  and  held  several 
positions  in  college  which  paid  something.  Upon  his 
graduating,  he  received  an  invitation  to  go  to  Exeter,  and 
take  the  position  of  assistant  instructor  in  Phillips  Academy. 
He  remained  there  two  years,  teaching  one  year  only,  how- 
ever, giving  great  satisfaction  as  a  teacher,  and  was  highly 
esteemed  by  Dr.  Abbott,  Principal  of  the  Academy,  and  all 
others  concerned  in  its  management,  for  his  abilities,  zeal, 
manners  and  success  in  teaching.  During  his  second  year 
he  pursued  his  theological  and  other  studies  and  reading 
with  a  view  of  fitting  himself  for  a  minister,  under  the  care 
and  instruction  of  Rev.  Joseph  Buckminister  of  Portsmouth, 
N.  H.  Exeter  at  that  time  was  noted  for  its  culture  and  in- 
tellectual taste,  and  was  graced  by  the  society  of  numerous 
ladies  and  gentlemen  of  talent  and  education.  This  society 
my  father  was  a  member  of,  and  he  has  in  his  recollection 
thus  gratefully  spoken  of  it,  which  he  calls  '  this  Culti- 
vated Circle  :'  '  "  The  feast  of  reason  and  the  flow  of  soul " 
enjoyed  by  me  in  ths  society,  so  constantly,  so  variously 
and  so  richly,  lives  in  my  memory  in  ever  increasing  fresh-

ness  and  nourish  within  me  devoted  gratitude  to  God  for 
bestowing  upon  me  so  precious  a  privilege.'  In  after  years 
many,  of  these  ladies  and  gentlemen  filled  high  positions, 
socially,  and  several  of  the  gentlemen  became  leaders 
among  men  and  were  called  to  high  public  stations.  Dur- 
ing his  second  year  at  Exeter,  one  of  the  religious  socie- 
ties there  having  no  pastor,  by  special  request  he  performed 
for  several  months  public  services  on  the  Sabbath,  reading 
printed  sermons,  and  conducting  the  other  services  in  the 
usual  manner. 

He  was  much  beloved  by  all  the  people  of  Exeter  who 
knew  him,  and  general  regret  was  expressed  at  his  leaving. 
He  also  for  a  few  months  taught  one  session  a  day  in  a  small 
school  of  young  ladies,  besides  having  at  the  same  time  a 
private  lady  pupil,  afterwards  wife  of  Pj'esident  Soule. 
Upon  leaving  Exeter  he,  in  the  fall  of  1811,  accepted  the 
position  of  a  tutor  in  Bowdoin  College,  at  Brunswick,  Me. 
There  were  but  two  tutors  in  college ;  my  father  was  the 
eldest  and  so  the  heaviest  tutorial  duties  and  labors  fell  upon 
him.  He  says  in  his  recollections,  speaking  of  his  position 
there :  '  My  own  situation  would  have  been  more  to  my 
mind  had  the  branches  in  which  I  was  required  to  instruct 
been  fewer  and  more  fixed.  That  it  was  not  so,  was  owing  to 
the  youth  of  the  college  and  its  scanty  funds,  so  that  the  in- 
structors were  not  as  many  as  was  desirable.  The  branches 
in  which  I  was  required  pretty  constantly  to  instruct  were 
Latin  and  Greek,  and  Mathematics,  including  Conic  Sec- 
tions, Navigation,  Surveying,  etc.,  and  occasionally,  for  a 
while,  had  to  teach  a  class  in  International  Law,  parts  of 
Natural  Philosophy,  Rlietoric,  Butler's  Analogy,  etc'  He 
also  says :  '  The  students  boarded  in  term  time  at  a  hotel 
near  the  college  in  commons.  It  devolved  on  me,  as  the 
older  tutor,  to  preside  at  the  table.  The  students  were 
orderly  and  respectful ;  I  had  not  in  a  single  instance  the 
least  trouble  in  presiding.'  In  addition  to  his  duties  as 
tutor,  he  diligently  pursued  his  Biblical  and  other  profes- 


278 


THE    DESCENDAJSTTS   OF 


sional  studies.  He  had  a  key  to  the  College  Library  and 
used  it  as  his  own.  He  says :  '  I  confined  myself  at 
Brunswick  too  closely  for  my  health,  probably,  to  my 
college  duties,  and  to  my  professional  studies.  My  main 
efforts,  however,  were  spent  in  a  careful  and  critical  study 
of  the  New  Testament  in  Greek.' 

He  found,  as  he  says,  his  year  spent  in  Brunswick  a 
happy  and  profitable  one.  He  was  respected  and  admired 
by  Pres.  Appleton  and  all  the  faculty,  with  whom  his 
relations  both  professional  and  social  were  intimate.  The 
college,  years  after,  conferred  upon  him,  in  common  with 
all  who  had  been  tutors,  an  honorary  degree.  The  un- 
dergraduates he  taught  not  only  appreciated  his  talents 
and  fine  scholarship  and  happy  manner  of  teaching,  but 
loved  him  for  his  kindness  and  his  warm  sympathies  with 
them,  and  his  zeal  in  aiding  their  progress  as  students  and 
men.  And  the  two  classes  he  taught — Sophomores  and 
Juniors — in  documents,  written  and  signed  by  the  mem- 
bers, thanked  him  for  his  instruction  and  kind  zeal  and 
interest  in  their  behalf,  and  one  of  these  documents,  now 
before  me — that  signed  by  the  Sophomore  class,  Aug., 
1812 — is  subscribed:  'Your  Affectionate  Friends.'  He 
left  Brunswick,  in  the  autumn  of  1812,  for  Cambridge, 
there  to  complete  his  theological  studies. 

Previously  to  going  to  Cambridge,  he  had  for  a  while 
thought  of  going  to  Andover.  As  he  says  in  his  recollec- 
tions, he  had,  while  a  youth,  and  for  some  succeeding 
years  inclined,  from  the  bias  given  his  mind  by  early 
reading  and  the  doctrines  taught  in  the  church  which  his 
father  and  family  attended,  to  the  belief  in  the  Trinity  and 
orthodox  (so-called)  system  of  faith.  But  by  study  and 
long  and  conscientious  examination,  he  became  satisfied 
of  the  truth  of  liberal  views  and  the  falsity  of  the  opposite. 
His  father,  though  a  Trinitarian,  was  liberal  in  his  views, 
and  always  impressed  on  his  children  the  duty  of  a  free 
and  independent  thought.     It  is  curious  that  my  father's 


JOHN   WHITMAN    OF   "WEYMOUTH.  279 

intense  love  of  individual  liberty  of  thought  should  have 
been  the  determining  cause  of  his  refusal  to  go  to  Andover 
and  instead  to  Cambridge ;  but  so  it  was.  And  in  simple 
justice  to  my  father's  head  and  heart,  I  must  here  quote 
somewhat  at  length  from  his  recollections.  Writing  on  the 
subject  he  says :  '  For  a  deep  love  of  liberty^  to  be  con- 
trolled by  Christian  principles,  I  was  trained  by  my  par- 
ents, both  by  their  precepts  and  their  examples.  I  was 
educated,  as  were  all  the  children  of  the  family,  to  form 
my  character  under  an  influential  sense  of  my  individual 
or  personal  responsibility  to  God.  The  purport  of  parental 
instruction  to  me  on  the  subject  was :  For  your  Christian 
course  follow  not  me  ;  follow  not  any  man  ;  follow  not  any 
hody  of  men;  but  follow  Christ.  Reverence,  love  and 
obey  the  saving  truths  of  the  Gospel.  Search  the  Scrip- 
tures. Prove  all  things  ;  hold  fast  that  which  is  good.  Be 
thus  faithful  unto  death  and  all  will  be  well  with  you.' 
No  nobler,  safer  rule  could  have  been  given  a  son  by 
intelligent  Christian  parents.  And  my  father  says  of  it : 
'  This  instruction  has  comprised  the  underlying  elements 
of  my  Christian  course  from  its  commencement'  He 
says  as  to  Andover :  '  I  concluded  I  would  study  divinity 
at  Andover  provided  I  could  be  free  to  follow  the  leadings 
of  Gospel  truth,  as  I  should  apprehend  a,nd  experience  them.'' 
And  to  ascertain  if  he  could  so  be  free  in  thought,  he  vis- 
ited Andover,  examined  the  situation,  but  to  his  great 
surprise  found  that  that  institution  and  its  professors  were 
bound  down  to  an  iron  creed,  and  to  teach  which  all  the 
professors  were  obliged  then,  as  noiv,  to  sign  an  agreement 
at  stated  periods.  Of  course  such  stupid  bigotry,  so 
opposed  to  all  free  thought,  to  all  candid  and  intellectual 
discussion,  to  all  progress,  could  not  but  disgust  such  a 
man  as  my  father.  So  he  at  once  determined  to  enter  the 
Cambridge  Divinity  School,  and  there,  inspired  by  the 
lofty  piety,  by  the  broad  and  liberal  and  free  course  of 
study,  which  ruled  that  school,  he  completed  his  theologi- 


280 


THE    DESCENDANTS    OF 


cal  course ;  and  convinced  by  his  critical  study  of  the 
Scriptures,  and  by  careful  examination  of  Ecclesiastical 
History,  and  by  Christian  logic,  of  the  truth  of  Unitarian- 
ism,  he  ever  after  was  one  of  its  sincerest,  most  earnest, 
intelligent,  and  able  expounders  and  supporters ;  and  in 
the  long  and  often  bitter  controversy  which  raged  in  Mas- 
sachusetts for  many  years  between  orthodoxy  so-called 
and  Unitarianism,  he  was  a  prominent  actor,  writer  and 
speaker ;  in  newspapers,  religious  magazines,  sermons, 
addresses,  intellectual  combats  at  ministerial  associations, 
and  by  every  other  honorable  way,  he  did  all  he  could  to 
overthrow  the  bigotry  and  error  of  orthodoxy.  But  while 
he  was  ever  bold,  decided  and  earnest  in  his  warfare,  he 
was  charitable,  forgiving,  and  prudent  and  liberal,  so  that 
he  won  the  respect  and  admiration  of  his  theological  foes 
spite  his  hard  blows  and  gallant  fights.  And  he  was 
cheered  and  blessed  in  his  old  age  by  seeing  the  fruits  of 
the  long  but  noble  warfare  against  orthodox  ignorance  and 
bigotry,  in  liberal  thought,  becoming  dominant  in  Massa- 
chusetts even  in  most  orthodox  societies. 

My  father  was  well  armed  for  such  an  arduous  and  life- 
long contest.  He  was  thoroughly  educated  in  general 
studies,  and  history,  both  profane  and  religious.  He  was 
familiar  with  all  the  doctrines  and  history  of  all  sects.  He 
was  a  splendid  Greek,  Latin  and  Hebrew  scholar.  He 
read  and  wrote  the  Hebrew  with  ease.  He  had  the  rare 
power  of  a  critic,  of  a  large,  generous  yet  close  and  exact 
habit.  His  memory  was  remarkable  ;  it  rafely  failed  him. 
He  was  too  modest,  and  so  did  not  at  all  times  receive  the 
appreciation  his  great  talents  and  acquirements  and  labors 
merited.  But  by  those  in  and  out  of  the  ministry  who 
knew  him  well,  he  was  held  '  primus  inter  pares.'  He 
had  a  remarkable  logical  power,  both  in  statement  and  in 
analysis.  No  language,  however  skillfully  woven  together, 
could  confuse  his  clear,  rapid,  close,  logical  mind.  And  with 
all  his  great  powers  were  combined  the  kindest,  sweetest, 


JOHN   WHITMAN    OF   WEYMOUTH.  281 

most  winning  and  persuasive  manner  and  speech.  While 
he  had  great  brain  power,  his  sympathies  Avere  deep  and 
his  natm'e  was  gentle,  loving  and  affectionate.  To  serve 
all,  to  do  good  to  all,  to  assuage  sorrow,  cheer  the  sad, 
encourage  the  depressed  and  weary,  to  elevate  the  charac- 
ter by  sound  views  of  religion,  to  aid  society  in  all  ways, 
were  to  him  not  a  cold  duty,  but  a  happy  labor.  And  as 
eminent  as  he  was  as  a  minister,  as  a  writer,  thinker  and 
speaker,  he  was,  if  possible,  greater  as  a  pastor  in  parochial 
visits  to  the  sick,  the  poor,  the  anxious.  His  face,  as  he 
went  among  the  homes  of  his  people,  was  welcomed  by  all, 
rich  or  poor,  on  Avhom  it  shone.  His  footsteps  were  glad- 
some to  hear.  He  was  ever  a  strong  friend  of  education, 
and  wherever  he  was  placed  he  gladly  labored — on  school 
committees  and  in  all  ways  possible  to  build  up  and 
advance  the  cause  of  education.  He  had  eminent  social 
gifts,  was  a  ready  and  instructive  conversationalist,  was 
witty,  very  humorous  at  times,  and  had  a  vast  fund  of 
anecdotes  ever  ready,  which  his  fine  memory  enabled  him 
to  use  in  the  social  circle  to  the  great  pleasure  of  his 
hearers. 

In  May,  1813,  at  the  earnest  solicitation  of  the  dis- 
tinguished Henry  Ware,  D.D.,  Professor  of  Divinity  in 
Cambridge,  and  other  friends,  my  father  consented  to  go 
before  the  '  Boston  Association '  of  ministers  to  be  exam- 
ined for  approbation  as  a  clergyman.  He  had  desired  to 
remain  a  year  longer  at  Cambridge.  He  was,  as  to  char- 
acter, acquirements  and  all  requisites,  found  worthy  by  the 
Association  of  the  high  calling  of  a  religious  teacher,  and 
was,  by  an  unanimous  vote,  '  approbated,'  as  it  was  then 
called,  to  preach.  He  at  once  responded  to  invitations  to 
preach,  and  Jan.  1,  1814,  was  ordained  in  Billerica,  Mass., 
as  colleague  of  the  justly  celebrated  Rev.  Henry  Cum- 
mings,  D.D.  The  parish  was  large  and  the  duties  heavy. 
He  remained  there,  as  colleague,  and  after  the  death  of 
Dr.  Cummings,  as  sole  pastor — in  all  for  twenty-one  years

(21) — when  he  asked  a  dismissal,  which  was  reluctantly- 
given.  Time  or  space  forbid,  as  I  would  like,  to  give  in 
detail  a  history  of  my  father's  services  while  pastor  of  sev- 
eral societies.  All  permitted  to  be  said  is — that  as  the 
minister  at  all  these  places,  he  was  *  a  bright  and  shining 
light '  intellectually,  morally  and  socially.  Admired  and 
respected  as  well  by  outsiders  as  the  people  to  whom  he 
ministered,  constant  and  indefatigable  in  all  good  words 
and  works,  and  faithful  at  all  times,  he  labored  to  advance 
the  cause  of  his  Master,  Jesus  Christ. 

In  the  autumn  of  1836,  having  resigned  in  Billerica  in 
the  spring  of  1835,  he  was  installed  as  pastor  over  the 
Unitarian  Church  in  Wilton,  N.  H.,  where  he  remained  till 
the  fall  of  1840.  His  ministry  there  was  successful,  and 
his  labors  for  the  good  of  the  parish  and  people  generally 
were,  as  ever  with  him,  constant  and  faithful.  Here,  owing 
to  the  fierce  political  strife  in  1840,  political  difficulties 
arose  in  the  parish.  The  majority  of  the  people  were 
Democrats ;  he  was  a  Whig.  They  declared  generally : 
'  A  minister  had  no  right  to  vote  for  presidential  candi- 
dates.' He  thought  of  course  he  had,  and  so  discharged 
his  plain  duty  as  a  citizen  to  vote  as  he  believed.  This 
made  some  unpleasant  feeling  among  some  of  his  parish- 
ioners. In  the  spring  of  1841,  in  May,  his  dearly  loved 
and  devoted  wife  died.  This  sad  affliction,  added  to  the 
political  difficulty,  caused  him,  in  the  autumn  of  1841,  to 
ask  a  dismission,  which  was  granted. 

From  Wilton  he  went  to  Calais,  Me.,  and  preached  there 
to  the  Unitarian  Society  till  May,  1844.  June  1  he 
preached  to  the  Unitarian  Society  in  E.  Bridgewater, 
Mass.,  his  native  place,  and  was  immediately  invited  to 
settle  there ;  he  accepted  the  invitation,  though  the  con- 
gregation and  people  of  Calais  were  strongly  attached  to 
him,  and  wished  him  to  remain.  He  was  installed  over 
the  E.  Bridgewater  Church  in  July,  1844.  He  was  much 
pleased  at  being  called  to  minister  in  his  native  town.     He 


JOHN   WHITMAN    OF   WEYMOUTH.  283 

met  old  friends,  and  the  associations  of  his  boyhood  and 
youth  added  delight.  It  is  needless  to  say  that  his  life 
and  ministry  in  E.  Bridgewater  were  rounded  out  with 
successful  public  labor  and  social  duties  and  pleasures.  He 
was  beloved  of  all,  by  all  religious  denominations.  He 
continued  as  pastor  there  till  1852  in  September.  At  this 
time  he  had  been  in  active  life  as  clergyman  for  forty-one 
years,  and  although  still  vigorous  in  body  and  mind,  his 
children  thought  he  had  labored  in  public  long  enough ; 
and  desirous  that  their  father,  who  had  ever  been  to  them 
a  devoted  and  loving  father,  should  have  rest  and  a  chance 
to  enjoy  the  pleasures  of  reading  and  study  so  congenial 
to  him,  succeeded  in  at  last  persuading  him  to  resign  his 
ministry  and  retire.  His  congregation  was  surprised  at 
his  unexpected  request  of  dismissal,  and  urged  him  strongly 
to  remain  as  their  pastor.  But  yielding  to  the  wishes  of 
his  children,  he  declined  to  stay  longer,  and  with  mutual 
love  and  confidence  and  respect  the  pastoral  relations  were 
sundered.  The  lovely  village  of  Deerfield,  Mass.,  in  the 
Connecticut  valley,  was,  by  common  consent  of  parents 
and  children,  chosen  as  the  place  of  retreat.  His  children 
bought  him  a  pleasant  home,  with  an  acre  of  fine  garden 
soil  attached,  as  he  was  passionately  attached  to  gardening, 
and  to  this  home  he  and  his  noble  wife,  Mrs.  Abby  P. 
Whitman,  retired  in  September,  1852.  The  place  met  all 
the  wishes  and  requirements  of  my  father.  He  was  a 
strong  lover  of  nature  in  all  her  moods  and  developments, 
and  here  it  was  fully  gratified.  The  town  of  Deerfield,  too, 
was  an  intellectual  one,  having  a  large  circle  of  cultivated 
people,  among  them  several  authors  and  authoresses. 
There  was  also  a  large  and  flourishing  Unitarian  church ; 
and  one  of  its  pastors  once  told  me  that  he  '  had  feared 
severe  criticism  from  my  father  as  a  parishioner '  when  he 
first  came.  '  But  he  found  him,  to  his  joy,  a  generous, 
just,  appreciative  and  sympathizing  one.'  Beside  the  pas- 
tor of  the  church,  father  had  for  a  time  the  great  pleasure 


284  THE    DESCENDANTS   OF 

of  intimate  friendship  and  communion  with  the  distin- 
guished ex- Unitarian  clergymen,  Rev.  Dr.  Willard  and 
Rev.  Preserved  Smith,  both  now  dead. 

My  father,  though  thus  retired  from  regular  ministerial 
labor,  yet  true  to  his  principles  and  tastes  continued,  up  to 
his  death  active,  so  far  as  age  permitted,  in  physical  labor 
and  duties,  and  a  close  critical  scholar  and  student  and 
writer.  He  told  me  in  the  fall  he  died,  that  it  was  his 
custom  generally  to  write  one  sermon  a  week,  not  for  deliv- 
ering but,  as  he  said,  *  to  keep  his  mental  powers  strong.^ 
His  life  there  was  a  fragrance  and  a  blessing  to  his  family, 
his  friends  and  to  society.  He  preserved  to  the  last  his 
humor,  his  geniality  and  wit,  his  bright  conversational 
power.  His  mind  remained  in  full  vigor,  and  so  active 
was  it,  and  so  fond  was  he  of  scholastic  reading,  that  the 
summer  of  his  death,  in  July,  he  invited  me,  being  on  a 
visit,  to  sit  on  the  porch  and  hear  him  read  Plato  in  the 
original.  Wonderful,  noble,  blessed  old  patriarch.  He 
and  his  wife  made  the  Deerfield  home  what  our  parents  had 
named  it — '  Sunny  Side.'  And  so  it  ever  was  to  us  chil- 
dren, who  found  it  a  sweet,  loving  home  for  all — parents, 
children  and  grandchildren.  Some  sixteen  years  were  thus 
passed  by  him  at  Deerfield  when,  on  October  29,  1869,  our 
good  father,  after  a  short  illness,  passed  away,  aged  84 
years  and  10  months,  respected  and  beloved  of  all,  having 
lived  a  long  life  devoted  to  duty  and  good  deeds.  But  for 
the  relation  I  bear  him,  [  could  and  should  speak  louder 
words  of  praise,  for  he  me^rits  them.  I  cannot  omit  a  few 
words  as  to  father's  domestic  life  and  relations.  He  was 
thoroughly  a  domestic  man,  a  lover  of  home,  of  wife,  and 
children  and  grandchildren,  and  of  all  its  inmates.  His 
nature  was  so  tender  and  sympathetic  that  as  he  more  than 
once  told  me,  he  drew  strength  and  consolation  and  inspi- 
ration from  his  domestic  companionship.  No  better,  kinder 
husband  ever  lived.  He  was  very  fortunate  in  his  married 
relations. 


JOHN"   WHITMAN   OF   WEYMOUTH.  285 

I  wish  here  to  record  what  I  know  is  the  unanimous 
opinion  of  the  children  living,  that  never  was  a  desolate 
family  of  children  more  blessed  in  a  stepmother  than  we 
were.  She  was  indeed  a  mother  to  us  all,  and  our  own 
mother  could  not  have  exceeded  her  in  loving  care,  for- 
bearance and  self-sacrifice  for  us.  My  father  was  very 
fortunate  in  both  his  wives.  They  were  both  brilliant, 
educated  and  accomplished  and  intellectual  women.  And 
in  addition,  they  were  good  domestic  managers  and  in  all 
respects  were  to  my  father  '  helpmeets '  indeed."

with  the  entire  course  of  study,  determined  to  waste  no  more  time, 
and  at  once  entered  on  the  study  of  law ;  after  reading  law  in  the 
offices  of  Wood  &  Torrey  at  Fitchburg  for  three  years,  in  1840  was

the  term  of  seven  years  ;  two  years  after,  a  new  Constitution  was 
adopted  and  the  election  of  judges  given  to  the  people  ;  he  was  at 
once  elected  to  the  same  position  for  a  term  of  five  years,  and  re- 
elected for  a  second  term,  declining  a  third  term  which  was  offered 
him  without  opposition  of  either  political  party ;  1862,  after  being 
on  the  bench  twelve  years,  he  removed  to  Cincinnati,  and  resumed 
the  practice  of  law  in  that  city ;  in  1874,  was  appointed  by  Gov. 
Hayes  one  of  the  five  Supreme  Court  Commission  Judges,  but  held 
the  office  for  only  six  weeks,  resigning  on  account  of  his  health ; 
though  holding  many  offices,  he  has  refused  as  many  more,  and  has 
always  preferred  to  remain  in  private  life  ;  residence,  213  Kichmond

290  THE    DESCENDANTS   OF 

SO  far  from  ordinary,  that  he  deserves  some  words  of 
special  notice.  From  early  youth  he  had  determined  to 
have  a  collegiate  education  as  the  best  training  for  future 
work.  By  the  kindness  of  his  father,  he  was  allowed,  after 
he  was  sixteen  years  old,  to  appropriate  his  own  earnings 
for  that  purpose.  At  twenty-two,  by  different  kinds  of 
labor,  more  especially  factory  work,  he  had  accumulated 
a  small  capital,  but  sufficient,  in  his  opinion,  to  warrant 
the  attempt,  and  so  entered  Harvard  College  as  Freshman  ; 
but,  owing  to  his  connection  with  what  was  termed  a  re- 
bellion against  the  authorities,  was  rusticated  with  some 
other  participants.  His  enthusiasm,  for  what  he  deemed 
right,  led  him  into  this  unfortunate  difficulty,  which  he 
always  afterward  regretted,  and  which  was  the  cause  of 
his  leaving  college  immediately  after  he  had  been  re- 
examined and  admitted  but  to  the  class  below  his  own. 
Had  that  portion  of  his  punishment  been  remitted  he  would 
have  continued  his  collegiate  course,  but  he  could  not 
bear  that  degradation  in  the  community  where  before  he 
had  held  a  distinguished  rank  for  scholarship  and  good 
character.  That  his  participation  in  this  unfortunate  up- 
rising was  viewed,  naturally,  with  different  eyes  by  his 
associates  is  evidenced  from  the  fact  that,  on  leaving  the 
University,  he  was  the  recipient  of  many  tokens  of  esteem 
from  his  fellows — among  others,  an  elegant  edition  of  the 
New  Testament  in  Greek,  with  this  inscription : 

'  For  more  true  joy  Marcellus  exiled  feels 
Than  Caesar  with  a  Senate  at  his  heels.' 

Governors  and  governed  rarely  reason  from  the  same 
stand-point.  A  collegiate  course  would  undoubtedly  have 
been  a  great  advantage,  but  its  loss  could  but  modify  not 
destroy  his  natural  gifts  which  were  after  developed  by 
self-training.  His  tendencies  were  toward  a  religious  life 
and  the  position  of  a  teacher. 

Originally,  from  early  associations,  he  was  inclined  to 
Trinitarianism  and  strictly  Orthodox  views,  but  before  he 


JOHN   WHITMAN    OF   WEYMOUTH.  291 

entered  the  ministry,  after  deep  thought  and  study,  he 
adopted  more  liberal  ideas,  and  in  1826  lie  was  perma- 
nently settled  as  a  Unitarian  in  Waltham,  Mass.  At  that 
time  religious  controversy  was  rife,  and  attacks  were  fre- 
quent and  venomous  on  his  particular  belief.  He  ardently 
entered  the  field,  fighting  many  a  good  fight  for  his  faith. 
The  criticisms  upon  his  ability  as  a  controversialist  by 
adversaries  at  the  time  are  amusing.  When  he  contended 
at  one  end  of  the  line  with  the  Orthodox,  he  was  praised 
by  the  Universalists ;  when  fighting  the  latter,  he  was 
lauded  by  the  former,  so  it  is  fair  to  conclude  that  he 
exhibited  considerable  ability.  But  these  methods  were 
foreign  to  his  disposition,  which  though  ardent  in  defence 
of  the  right,  was  eminently  one  of  love,  especially  toward 
the  young  and  struggling.  Wherever  he  worked  as  a 
teacher  before  his  ordination — at  Billerica,  Wellfleet,  Sand- 
wich and  Beverly — he  left  behind  him  grateful  hearts,  of 
the  youth  of  both  sexes,  whom  he  had  led  into  the  pleasant 
paths  of  good  literature  and  practical  religion.  And  so 
after  at  Waltham  he  was  one  of  the  chief  promoters  of  the 
Rumford  Institute,  well  known  as  the  means  of  vast  good 
iu  mental  and  moral  improvement. 

He  raised  the  standard  of  common  education,  and  prac- 
tically, assiduously  and  continually  worked  to  carry  out 
his  theories  for  the  increase  of  public  happiness,  which  he 
thus  formulized,  saying :  '  In  the  first  place,  I  would  pro- 
pose that  all  our  children  receive  a  high  degree  of  educa- 
tion ;  2d,  that  all  our  children  receive  a  Christian  educa- 
tion ;  3d,  that  the  Christian  ministry  should  fulfill  the 
important  purpose  for  which  it  was  established ;  4th,  that 
a  constant  supply  of  useful  reading  be  furnished  for  all 
members  of  society ;  5th,  that  associations  be  formed  in 
every  town  for  mutual  improvement.'  His  house  and  his 
large  miscellaneous  library  were  always  open,  particularly 
to  that  portion  of  his  congregation  dependent  upon  their 
daily  factory  labor.     As  he  preached  so  he  taught  by  his 


292  THE   DESCENDANTS    OF 

daily  life ;  to  use  the  language  of  an  old  friend :  '  His 
great  and  peculiar  characteristic  was  to  infuse  his  own 
spirit  into  others.  He  breathed  the  breath  of  life  into  the 
people  around  him  and  made  them  living  souls.  There 
never  seemed,  there  never  was,  any  self  in  him.  In  this 
lay  his  great  powers  over  others.  We  all,  who  knew  him, 
seemed  parts  of  him  and  he  of  us.  There  was  a  glorious 
energy  of  character  in  him,  always  directing  itself  onward 
with  a  high  and  noble  firmness.  It  gathered  to  itself  all 
good  within  its  widely  extended  atmosphere.  Blessed  were 
those  who  lived  within  its  influence.'  Of  the  people,  for 
the  people,  to  them  he  dedicated  his  life.  Although  larger, 
and,  in  the  ordinary  sense,  more  pleasant  fields  were  offered 
to  his  ministry,  he  chose  to  labor  with  those  who  had  first 
called  him,  believing  that  there  he  could  do  most  good. 
An  ardent  Christian,  devoted  to  all  good  works,  so  he  lived, 
so  he  died,  deeply  mourned  as  he  had  been  fervently  loved. 
To  all,  but  particularly  to  the  earnest  youthful  straggler, 
his  life  is  an  example  and  incentive."     2  c,  b.  Waltham.

14,  1857,  Mary  Elizabeth  Church  (he  was  named  Josiali  Crosby, 
but  after  the  death  of  his  father  changed  his  name) ;  fitted  for  col- 
lege at  Phillips  Academy,  Exeter,  N.  H.,  and  entered  Harvard, 
graduating  with  the  class  of  1846  ;  studied  law  in  the  office  of 
Lewis  &  Fessenden,  Portland,  Me,  and  was  admitted  to  the  bar  in 
1849 ;  that  year,  yielding  to  the  excitement  of  the  gold  fever,  he 
determined  to  go  to  California,  reaching  San  Francisco,  June  17, 
1850 ;  it  required  only  a  few  months  of  mining  experience  to  con- 
vince him  of  the  folly  of  such  a  life,  and  he  soon  determined  to 
settle  down  in  the  practice  of  his  profession ;  he  selected  Benicia  as 
a  suitable  residence,  remaining  there  till  Feb.,  1864;  he  took  a 
leading  place  at  the  bar,  and  quickly  won  the  respect  of  his  fellow- 
townsmen  ;  he  d.  of  apoplexy,  San  Francisco,  Aug,  5,  1855 ;  the 
following  notice  is  from  a  Benicia  paper : 

"Judge  B.  C.  Whitman,  who  died  at  San  Francisco  on  Thursday 
of  last  week  (Aug.  5,  1885),  was  one  of  the  notable  men  of  the 
coast;  he  was  born  at  Waltham,  Mass.,  1828,  and  graduated  from 
Harvard  in  the  class  of  1846;  he  came  to  California  in  1850,  on  the 


JOHN   WHITMAN   OF    WEYMOUTH.  293 

ship  '  Cheshire,'  which  landed  him  at  this  city,  where  he  at  once 
commenced  the  practice  of  law  in  partnership  with  "W".  S.  Wells ; 
in  1850  he  was  elected  Sheriff  of  the  county,  but  resigned  after  a 
few  months ;  he  also  served  as  City  Clerk  of  Benicia ;  Mr.  Whitman 
also  served  this  county  in  the  Assembly  of  1854,  having  been  elected 
on  the  Whig  ticket;  in  1856  he  ran  for  Congress  on  the  Know- 
Nothing  ticket,  but  was  defeated ;  in  1863  Mr.  Whitman  left  here 
for  Virginia  City,  where  he  continued  the  practice  of  his  profession, 
taking  a  prominent  part  in  most  of  the  mining  litigations  on  the 
Comstock  Lode ;  in  1868  he  was  elected  one  of  the  Justices  of  the 
Supreme  Court  of  Nevada,  and  in  the  fall  of  that  year  was  appointed 
to  1111  the  vacancy  caused  by  the  resignation  of  Chief  Justice  Beatty  ; 
he  removed  to  San  Francisco  in  1882,  continuing  there  the  practice 
of  his  profession ;  Mr.  Whitman  was  a  man  of  large  attainments, 
and  his  character  was  above  reproach ;  he  was  of  genial  disposition 
and  extremely  courteous  in  his  manners ;  he  attracted  to  himself  a 
large  circle  of  warm  friends,  several  of  whom  are  of  this  city;  he 
married  Miss  Mary  Church  of  Rough  and  Ready,  having  made  her 
acquaintance  when  she  was  a  pupil  of  Miss  Atkins'  Seminary  ;"  1  c.

fitted  for  college  at  Phillips  Academy,  graduating  1818,  and 
entered  Harvard  College,  graduating  1825  ;  entered  upon 
the  study  of  the  ministry,  and  was  settled  first  at  Saco  and 
later  at  Portland,  Me. ;  1845,  was  invited  to  take  charge  of 
the  church  at  Lexington,  and  was  ordained,  July  30,  in  that 
year ;  immediately  after  his  settlement,  the  society  voted  to 
reconstruct  the  church  edifice ;  when  about  completed,  it 
was  destroyed  by  fire,  Dec.  17,  1846;  a  new  church  was 
quickly  begun  and  completed  and  dedicated,  Feb.  28,  1848  ; 
Mr.  Whitman  was  settled  under  very  flattering  circum- 
stances, but  unforseen  causes  disturbed  the  peace  of  the 
parish;  the  destruction  of  their  church  interrupted  his 
ministry,  and  dissensions  regarding  the  location  of  the  new 
edifice  impaired  the  harmony   of  the   society ;  called  to 


294  THE   DESCENDANTS    OF 

Portland  to  attend  the  funeral  of  a  brother-in-law,  he  was 
taken  ill  and  d.  Jan.  25,  1848,  just  before  the  comjDletion  of 
his  new  church;  he  was  buried  Jan.  28  ;  the  society  voted 
to  pay  his  salary  till  the  May  following-,  "  as  a  token  of  their 
high  respect  for  him  and  his  family,  and  for  his  unceasing 
labors  to  promote  the  cause  of  religion,  education  and 
every  good  work  while  he  was  permitted  to  remain  among 
the  living ;"  though  a  man  of  feeble  constitution,  he  per- 
formed a  vast  amount  of  work ;  leaving  Saco,  his  first 
charge,  as  they  were  unable  to  provide  a  suitable  sup])ort 
for  a  minister,  he  took  charge  of  the  general  agency  of  the 
American  Unitarian  Association  ;  a  new  society  was  organ- 
ized at  Portland  and  he  was  induced  to  take  charge  of  the 
same  ;  his  incessant  labors. here  impaired  his  health,  and  his 
physicians  ordered  rest  and  a  change  to  a  warmer  climate ; 
he  went  to  Savannah  and  as  soon  as  he  found  his  strength 
returning  sought  occupation  in  that  vicinity ;  finding  that 
he  could  not  preach  in  that  section  with  the  freedom  to 
which  he  was  accustomed,  and  lack  of  facilities  for  the 
instruction  of  his  children  being  a  further  objection,  he 
returned  to  Portland  in  1842,  residing  there  till  his  call  to 
Lexington  in  1845;  he  was  ardently  devoted  to  his  pro- 
fession, and  never  spared  himself  where  there  was  a  field 
of  labor  before  him ;  in  addition  to  his  weekly  preparation 
for  the  pulpit,  he  was  a  constant  contributor  for  periodicals 
and  the  weekly  press ;  his  publications  include,  besides 
many  sermons,  religious  tracts  and  addresses,  the  memoirs 
of  Rev.  Edward  H.  Ecles  of  Kennebunk,  Me. ;  of  his 
brother,  Rev.  Bernard'^  W.  of  Waltham ;  and  his  father, 
Dea.  John^  of  Bridge  water ;  a  man  of  modest  unaffected 
piety,  he  was  firm  and  decided  in  his  religious  opinions, 
yet  far  removed  from  a  narrow  sectarian  spirit ;  by  the 
simplicity  of  his  manners,  his  liberal  and  benevolent  dis- 
position and  good  sense,  he  always  secured  the  respect  and 
esteem  of  the  community  in  which  he  lived ;  his  writings 
were  characterized  by  strength  and  directness,  guided  by 


JOHN    WHITMAN    OF   WEYMOUTH.  295 

practical  wisdom  and  experience ;  his  preaching-  was  ear- 
nest, direct,  practical  and  persuasive,  and  rather  contro- 
versial than  declamatory  in  manner  ;  in  matters  of  education 
he  took  great  interest,  and  served  on  the  Lexington  school 
committee,  1846-47  ;  his  widow  resides  at  Lexington  with

300  THE    DESCENDANTS    OF 

1810 ;  d.  Cleveland,  O.,  June  23,  1884 ;  a  book-binder,  engaged  in 
business  at  Cleveland  ;  Mrs.  Wetmore  has  long  been  known  as  "  the 
Prisoner's  Friend ;"  of  her  it  may  be  said  literally  and  in  the  largest 
sense :  "  I  was  an  hungered  and  ye  gave  me  meat,  naked  and  ye 
clothed  me ;  I  was  sick  and  in  prison  and  ye  visited  me ;"  inheriting 
from  her  parents  a  love  of  humanity,  she  early  devoted  herself  to 
charitable  works ;  never  of  a  robust  constitution,  and  for  many  years 
an  invalid,  she  has  yet  accomplished  in  her  chosen  fields  an  amount 
of  work  that  puts  to  shame  those  much  stronger  than  herself ;  nearly 
twenty  years  ago  she  began  the  special  work  of  caring  for  friendless 
prisoners,  and  from  that  time  to  this  she  has  been  constantly  engaged 
in  this  work,  but  never  to  the  neglect  of  her  home  duties  ;  for  years 
she  ministered  tenderly  to  her  invalid  mother,  and  her  home  was  a 
blessed  nook  to  the  many  needy  ones  who  found  refuge  there  ;  her 
cheering  words  and  deeds  of  sympathy  and  friendship  did  not  end 
when  those,  in  whom  she  was  interested,  were  discharged  from 
prison  ;  she  has  taken  ragged  and  forlorn  prisoners,  just  discharged, 
into  her  own  home,  clothed  them  and  kept  them  there,  sometimes 
for  weeks,  until  employment  at  honest  labor  could  be  secured  for 
them ;  in  this  she  has  had  to  bear  the  opposition  of  friends,  who 
considered  her  a  visionary  enthusiast,  squandering  her  time  and 
means  in  a  profitless  and  dangerous  work ;  but  she  has  the  courage 
of  her  convictions,  and  has  pursued  the  even  tenor  of  her  way  ;  her 
sense  of  right  and  justice  has  carded  her  over  opposition,  prejudice 
and  sneers ;  and  her  moral  bravery  has  won  the  admiration  of  all 
who  know  her ;  resides  with  her  father  at  Maiden ;  P.  O.  box  596 ; 
no  issue.

of  a  clock  maker  and  machinist ;  he  d.  Jan.  26, 1882,  aged  80 ;  7  c; 
the  following  sketch  appeared  in  the  Winthrop  Weekly  Budget : 

"  In  the  midst  of  life  we  are  in  the  midst  of  death.  Again  we 
are  reminded  of  the  shortness  of  life  and  the  certainty  of  the  brief- 
ness of  our  sojourn  here  below.  Indeed,  no  land  or  chme,  this  side 
the  '  silent  flowing  river,'  has  been  discovered  where  the  '  fatal 
monster '  comes  not. 

Our  esteemed  townsman,  Luther  Whitman,  quietly  and  peacefully 
passed  over  to  that  land  '  from  whose  bourne  no  traveler  ever  re- 
turns,' Thursday,  Jan.  26  (1882),  after  a  painful  illness  of  several 
weeks'  duration.  When  the  swift  messenger  removes  from  our 
midst  one  who  for  a  great  many  years  has  been  identified  with  the 
growth  and  varied  interests  of  our  town,  it  seems  fitting  as  well  as 
appropriate  to  extend  the  ordinary  obituary  notice  to  a  brief  outline 
sketch  of  the  life  and  public  services  of  the  deceased.  Mr.  Whit- 
man was  born  in  Bridgewater,  Mass.,  March  10,  1802  ;  his  ancestors 
■were  English,  Capt.  John  Whitman,  his  great-great-grandfather, 
came  to  this  country  in  the  '  Mayflower'  from  the  west  of  England. 
Luther  Whitman  came  to  Winthrop  in  1815  with  his  father,  Ezra 
Whitman,  who  was  a  clock  manufacturer;  for  a  number  of  years 
after  attaining  his  majority  he  continued  in  the  business  of  his 
father,  manufacturing  church  and  tower  clocks  chiefly,  and  the 
'  Old  South '  Church  at  Boston,  Mass.,  has  in  its  steeple,  in  active 
operation,  one  of  the  clocks  of  his  make  where,  for  many  years,  it 
has  looked  down  upon  the  most  populous  and  thriving  city  of  New 
England,  and  correctly  pointed  out  to  hundreds  of  thousands  of 
people  the  precise  time  of  day.  During  this  time  he  invented  many 
curious  and  useful  articles — among  them  a  gear-cutting  machine  for 
cutting  the  cog-wheels  of  clocks  and  watches ;  this  principle  is  still 
embodied  in  every  gear-cutter  in  use  in  America.  In  1830  he  con- 
structed and  put  in  successful  operation  a  self-acting  fog  bell  on 
the  coast  of  Maine,  near  Owl's  Head,  upon  a  very  dangerous  rock 
which  could  not  be  reached  in  a  storm ;  by  his  device,  worked  by

machinery,  the  bell  could  be  rung  continuously  without  the  presence 
of  an  operator.  But  his  active  mind  and  inventive  genius  could  not 
long  be  content  or  circumscribed  with  this  kind  of  work.  In  1881 
he  commenced  his  real  life's  work — that  of  an  inventor  and  manu- 
facturer. His  first  place  of  business  was  in  what  is  now  the  carding 
rooms  over  the  grist-mill  on  Mechanics  row.  After  carrying  on  his 
business  there  for  a  short  time,  it  became  apparent  that  he  must 
have  more  room  to  develop  the  plans  and  carry  them  into  success- 
ful operation  that  were  destined  to  give  him  rank  high  up  among 
the  inventors  of  the  world.  Consequently,  he  purchased  the  mills 
and  privileges  and  dwelling-house  of  J.  H.  Merrill,  Hiram  and  John 
Cole  in  1845  and  greatly  enlarged  his  business.  Feb.  13,  1853,  he 
encountered  a  very  serious  drawback  by  the  loss  of  his  entire  mill 
property  and  house  by  fire.  Undaunted  by  this  terrible  catastrophe, 
he  immediately  rebuilt  his  factories  and  purchased  the  mill  privilege 
then  owned  by  Benjamin  and  Davis  in  order  to  supply  the  ever- 
increasing  demand  for  his  goods.  These  factories  he  continued  to 
occupy  and  operate  till  1876  when,  on  account  of  failing  health,  he 
turned  the  business  over  to  his  son,  W.  E.  Whitman,  who  has  con- 
tinued the  business  until  the  present  time.  During  all  this  time  he 
did  a  large  amount  of  business,  employing  a  large  number  of  work- 
men, and  contributed  very  largely  to  the  building  up  of  our  beau- 
tiful village.  He  also  furnished  capital  and  with  his  brother  started 
a  business  in  Baltimore  under  the  firm  name  of  L.  &  E.  Whitman, 
which  proved  a  very  successful  undertaking.  As  an  inventor  he 
will  ever  rank  high  among  those  who  have  benefitted  the  world  by 
their  useful  inventions.  In  1825  he  commenced  taking  out  patents 
on  thrashing-machines  and  continued  to  make  improvements  on 
them  for  several  years,  and  he  is  undoubtedly  the  original  inventor 
of  the  thrashing-machine  in  America.  J.  I.  Case  of  Racine,  Wis., 
said  a  few  years  since  that  he  '  would  give  more  to  meet  Luther 
Whitman  and  take  him  by  the  hand  than  any  man  in  the  world, 
for  to  him  belongs  the  credit  of  inventing  the  thrashing-machine.' 
It  is  said,  and  probably  truthfully,  that  there  is  not  a  thrashing- 
machine  in  use  in  America  to-day  that  does  not  use  his  patent.  He 
also  invented  the  revolving  horse-rake,  hundreds  of  thousands  of 
which  have  been  used,  and  it  is  really  the  best  horse-rake  ever  made. 
In  politics  Mr.  Whitman  was  originally  a  Whig,  afterward  a  Repub- 
lican, always  taking  a  deep  interest  in  public  affairs,  but  being  too 
modest  to  put  himself  forward  into  the  political  arena ;  he  served 
the  town  acceptably  as  selectman,  absolutely  declining  a  re-election. 
He  was  for  many  years  a  member  of  the  Congregational  church, 


304  THE   DESCENDANTS   OF 

uniting  with  it  in  May,  1842 ;  his  purse  was  always  open  to  supply 
the  needs  of  the  church ;  he  was  one  of  the  twelve  who  agreed  to 
assume  all  the  expense  of  rebuilding  the  church  edifice,  and  was 
chairman  of  the  committee  of  three  who  rebuilt  it,  and  upon  whom 
devolved  all  the  responsibility,  which  at  this  time  was  very  great, 
as  the  church  was  split  asunder  from  its  extreme  issues  upon 
political  questions;  the  undertaking  was  successfully  carried  out. 
As  a  temperance  man  he  ranks  among  the  first  in  his  country ; 
in  this  as  in  everything  else  he  was  practical  and  in  earnest  rather 
than  demonstrative,  and  his  deeds  and  everyday  life  told  rather 
than  loud  or  boisterous  declarations.  To  him  belongs  the  credit  of 
raising  the  first  building  without  rum  in  this  county  (that  where 
Abiel  Robinson  now  lives).  He  was  told  he  could  not  do  it  without 
rum  (remember  this  was  at  a  time  when  ministers  even  took  their 
toddy),  but  he  quietly  said  he  would  do  it  and  he  did ;  ihe  building 
went  up  without  any  rum.  No  man  had  a  higher  appreciation  of 
his  friends  than  Mr.  Whitman,  and  he  never  turned  his  back  on  a 
man  who  did  him  a  kind  act.  His  enemies,  if  he  had  such,  he 
never  deceived  by  telling  them  he  loved  or  respected  them.  He 
was  not  without  his  faults — none  of  us  are — but  his  good  qualities 
largely  outweighed  them.  He  leaves  a  wife,  to  whom  he  was  mar- 
ried almost  a  half-century  ago,  six  sons  and  one  daughter,  and  his  is 
the  first  death  that  has  occurred  in  the  family  since  he  was  married 
in  Nov.,  1832.  His  six  sons  are  all  well  known  to  the  business  and 
manufacturing  world  as  smart,  enterprising  and  successful  business 
men  and  manufacturers.  His  four  oldest  sons  own  and  operate 
one  of  the  largest  manufactories  for  agricultural  implements  and 
machinery  in  the  "Western  States,  located  at  St,  Louis,  Mo.  His 
daughter  Pamelia  married  Henry  R.  Saywood  of  Boston,  a  smart 
energetic  business  man  and  manufacturer. 

In  Mr.  Whitman's  death  the  town  loses  a  good  citizen ;  the  village 
where  he  passed  so  many  years  of  his  life,  a  kind  and  obliging 
neighbor ;  his  wife  and  childi-en,  an  affectionate  husband,  a  kind 
and  indulgent  father.  His  memory  will  be  kept  green  by  those 
who  knew  him  best.  He  was  a  great  sufferer  for  a  few  weeks 
previous  to  his  decease,  but  his  end  was  peaceful,  and  in  the  sweet 
slumbers  of  ripened  manhood  he  passed  quietly  into  the  presence  of 
God.     May  peace  go  with  him  to  his  eternal  home.

the  principal  paper  devoted  to  farming  interests  published  in  the 
State ;  he  d.  July  13,  1887 ;  7  c. ;  the  following  was  taken  from  the 
Maryland  Farmer,  July,  1883  : 

" '  Those  who  have  been  instrumental  in  developing  agricultural 
pursuits  and  bringing  them  to  their  present  state  of  perfection  have 
rendered  the  world  and  mankind  a  service  which  cannot  be  com- 
puted. It  is  a  source  of  gratification  that  our  citizen,  Ezra  Whit- 
man, stands  prominently  among  those  whose  name  and  agency  in 
this  great  department  of  human  industry  and  civilization  will 
become  historical,  as  they  are  now  honorable  to  his  family  and  city. 
As  a  citizen,  editor,  and  an  inventor  and  manufacturer  of  agricul- 
tural implements,  he  has  exerted  valuable  influences  on  and  in  behalf 
of  Baltimore. 

He  was  born  in  Bridgewater,  Mass.,  June,  1812,  and  reared  in 
Winthrop,  whither  his  parents  removed  when  he  was  4  years  of 
age.  Here  his  father  had  a  manufactory  and  machine  works. 
Ezra,  the  son,  early  manifested  that  he  had  inherited  his  father's 
peculiar  genius,  and  contrived  some  valuable  improvements  in 
machinery  which  were  adopted  in  his  father's  establishment.  When 
20  years  of  age,  having  learned  various  branches  of  mechanics,  he 
desired  to  prosecute  the  watch-making  and  silver-smith  business,  and 
for  this  purpose  entered  the  employ  of  Jacob  Crooker,  Waterville, 
Me.,  extensively  engaged  in  that  department  of  manufacture. 
Before  the  expiration  of  the  year  he  determined  to  engage  in  busi- 
ness on  his  own  account,  and  through  the  personal  introduction  and 


JOHN   WHITMAN   OF   WEYMOUTH.  307 

recommendation  of  Mr.  Crooker,  who  had  become  strongly  attached 
to  him,  he  was  enabled  to  purchase  tools  and  a  stock  of  jewelry  and 
silver-ware,  with  which  he  began  in  Winthrop,  Me,,  June  7,  1833, 
when  he  was  just  21  years  of  age,  which  he  continued  for  six  years. 

About  this  time  public  attention  began  to  be  directed  to  the  con- 
struction of  labor-saving  machinery,  especially  in  agriculture.  Mr. 
Whitman  being  a  close  observer  of  the  times  and  constant  reader 
became  satisfied  that  there  was  an  opening  in  this  direction — a 
profitable  and  useful  field  for  genius  and  industry.  He  closed  his 
jewelry  establishment  and  began  the  manufacture  of  implements 
and  labor-saving  machines  of  various  descriptions. 

His  father  had  early  projected  and  began  the  construction  of  a 
reaping  machine  which  had  advanced  so  far  as  to  demonstrate  its 
practicability,  and  Ezra  Whitman  determined  to  give  his  attention 
to  the  subject  of  reaping  by  a  machine.  With  Mr.  Thomas  White, 
who  subsequently  built  a  large  establishment  in  York,  Penn.,  he 
constructed  a  two-horse  mower  and  reaper,  which  was  probably  the 
first  complete  one  ever  made.  This  was  begun  in  1824  and  finished 
in  1832.  It  was  of  course  comparatively  crude,  but  demonstrated 
the  feasibility  and  utility  of  such  implements.  Mr.  Whitman,  en- 
couraged by  its  success,  continued  to  manufacture  and  improve 
machinery,  attaining  a  national  reputation.  Finding  that  Maine 
was  too  remote  from  the  sections  of  the  country  where  agricultural 
implements  would  be  demanded,  he  came,  in  1843,  to  Baltimore. 
He  opened  a  steam  factory  for  the  manufacture  of  various  farm 
implements  and  one  for  making  plows  by  machinery.  He  also 
opened  a  warehouse  for  the  sale  of  all  kinds  of  implements,  seeds, 
fertilizers,  etc. 

Up  to  this  period  the  farmers  and  planters  had  proceeded  upon 
the  old  principles  and  methods  of  tilling  the  soil  and  gathering 
crops  with  little  prospect  of  change,  Mr.  Whitman,  with  wise 
regard  for  the  public  good  and  the  interest  of  the  producer,  in  the 
spirit  of  a  reformer  agitated  the  whole  question  of  agriculture  and 
disseminated  through  the  press  his  views.  He  then  interested  him- 
self in  the  agricultural  welfare  of  the  country,  especially  of  his 
adopted  State.  He  became  a  director  of  the  Maryland  Institute  to 
encourage  mechanical  ingenuity  and  skill ;  assisted  in  the  organiza- 
tion of  the  Maryland  State  Agricultural  Society,  of  which  he  is  a 
vice-president ;  circulated  ably  written  articles  upon  all  subjects  of 
interest  to  the  farmer.  He  founded  and  has  since  edited  the  Mary- 
land Farmer^  a  monthly  magazine,  which  is  recognized  as  one  of 
the  leading  agricultural  journals  of  the  day. 


308  THE   DESCENDANTS    OF 

In  Dec,  1873,  he  prepared  and  published  in  the  Maryland 
Farmer  an  appeal  to  the  public  for  a  "  Maryland  State  Horticul- 
tural Society,"  the  result  of  which  was  the  organization  of  the 
present  society  of  that  name  by  himself  and  a  number  of  other 
leading  gentlemen ;  of  this  he  was  chosen  the  first  president.  The 
benefits  which  this  has  conferred  upon  the  State  are  seen  at  each 
annual  fair,  in  the  exhibition  of  splendid  fruits  and  other  produc- 
tions of  our  State. 

As  a  just  recognition  of  his  position  and  influence  in  the  depart- 
ment of  agriculture,  he  was  elected  treasurer  of  the  National  Agri- 
cultural Congress  in  1876,  and  continued  to  hold  the  ofiice  a  long 
time.  For  many  years  he  has  been  and  still  is  a  member  of  the 
Board  of  Trustees  of  the  Maryland  Agricultural  College.  Mr. 
Whitman  has  spared  neither  time  nor  money  to  elevate  the  voca- 
tion of  the  farmer  and  advance  the  agricultural  interests  of  the 
whole  country,  and  with  that  view  has  traveled  extensively  in  all 
parts  of  the  United  States  and  Europe. 

Though  agriculture  and  agricultural  implements  have  been  Mr. 
Whitman's  specialty,  he  has  not  confined  his  attention  and  efforts 
to  them.  He  has  always  been  thoroughly  awake  to  the  general 
interests  of  the  country  and  communities  in  which  he  has  resided. 
While  a  young  man,  in  Maine,  when  the  north-eastern  boundary- 
question  threatened  war  between  England  and  the  United  States, 
and  Gov.  Fairfield  ordered  out  the  State  militia,  Mr.  Whitman  was 
detailed  as  captain  of  a  militia  company  to  draft  thirty  men  and 
rendezvous  at  Augusta  for  the  protection  of  the  north-east  line.  In 
the  midst  of  the  snows  and  storms  of  that  severe  climate,  he  reported 
his  company  ready  for  duty  at  Augusta  in  the  remarkably  short 
time  of  thirty-six  hours.  In  1867  he  was  a  delegate  from  Baltimore 
to  the  State  Convention  for  framing  a  new  State  Constitution,  and 
has  been  prominently  interested  and  consulted  in  many  matters  of 
public  improvement  and  enterprise. 

The  commercial  house  which  Mr.  Whitman  established  in  1843 
is  now  conducted  under  the  firm  of  Ezra  Whitman  Sons  &  Co.,  by 
his  sons,  Frederick  Winthrop  and  Harry  Fay,  whom  he  educated 
to  the  business,  and  have  taken  high  positions  in  the  commercial 
ranks  as  efficient  merchants.  His  eldest  son,  Ezra  B.  Whitman,  is 
now  president  of  the  Baltimore  Plow  Co.,  to  which  he  devotes  his 
constant  attention. 

This  brief  sketch  of  Mr.  Whitman  is  sufficient  to  show  that  he 
has,  during  his  honorable  career  in  Baltimore,  rendered  it  a  signal 
and  abiding  service,  and  that  he  must  and  will  be  distinguished  in 


JOHN   WHITMAJSr   OF   WEYMOUTH.  309 

its  annals  as  one  of  the  principal  agents  in  its  commercial  progress 
and  a  real  benefactor  to  the  State  of  Maryland,  in  being  among  the 
first  to  emancipate  her  farmers  from  the  tyranny  of  old  and  efiete 
methods,  and  supplying  them  with  material  and  machinery  which 
have  transformed  her  territory  into  bountiful  pastures  and  fields, 
beautiful  gardens  and  ladened  orchards  gleaming  with  golden  fruit.' 

In  addition  to  the  above  facts  we  would  add,  that  he  is  at  present 
a  vice-president  of  the  old  United  States  Agricultural  Society  and 
also  a  vice-president  of  the  American  Agricultural  Association. 

It  must  be  a  source  of  great  satisfaction  to  Mr.  Whitman  that  he 
was  one  of  the  first  who  solved  the  problem  of  cutting  grain  by 
machinery,  and  thus  opeued  the  door  of  invention  to  the  perfect 
mechanism  of  the  present  time  in  such  harvest  machines  by  which 
manual  labor  is  almost  dispensed  with.  He  built  the  first  establish- 
ment south  of  Mason  and  Dixon's  line  for  the  manufacture  of  plows 
by  machinery,  thus  furnishing  these  indispensable  articles  to  the 
farmer  at  greatly  reduced  cost.  A  nother  source  of  commendable 
pride  must  be  the  consciousness  of  having,  in  1864-,  when  the  dark 
shadow  was  resting  upon  our  country,  true  to  the  great  agricultural 
interest,  started  the  Maryland  Farmer^  which  ever  since  has  in- 
creased in  popularity  and  value  to  the  farming  interest,  while  owing 
to  enterprise  on  his  part  he  has  been  able  to  reduce  the  price  of 
subscription  until  now  it  has  become  the  lowest-priced  agricultural 
paper,  while  it  has  no  superior  in  this  country  in  its  line  of  furnish- 
ing substantial  knowledge  and  reliable  practical  information  upon 
all  subjects  cognate  to  the  pursuit  in  all  its  branches  and  to  home 
life. 

"We  cannot  refrain  from  giving  an  extract  from  a  well-written 
yet  concise  biographical  sketch  we  find  of  him  in  the  Biographical 
Encyclopedia  for  Maryland  and  the  District  of  Columbia : 

'For  a  man  of  his  years  (now  in  the  72d  year  of  his  life)  he  is 
comparatively  young  in  appearance.  He  is  in  the  enjoyment  of 
good  health ;  is  cheerful  and  urbane  in  his  manners,  and  though  on 
suitable  occasions  determined  and  undaunted,  is  gentle  and  mild  in 
his  demeanor  and  speech.  He  is  active  and  dignified  in  his  bearing, 
warm  in  his  friendship  and  unswerving  in  integrity.  In  all  the 
relations  of  life  he  is  irreproachable,  commanding  and  deserving 
the  esteem  and  confidence  of  his  fellow-citizens  and  enjoying  the 
rewards  of  his  well  spent  years.'  " 

"  The  golden  wedding  of  Mr.  and  Mrs.  Ezra  Whitman  was  cele- 
brated on  the  evening  of  De(;.  31  (1886),  at  their  residence,  149 
Madison  ave.  extended.     At  an  early  hour  and  for  some  days  pre- 


310  THE   DESCENDANTS   OF 

vious  to  that  evening  beautiful  golden  presents  came  to  them  from 
various  parts  of  the  country,  some  traveling  a  goodly  distance  to 
make  glad  the  hearts  of  the  recipients.  Letters  also  from  almost 
every  State  of  the  Union  poured  in  upon  them  with  pleasant  con- 
gratulations. All  the  presents  M^ere  beautiful,  many  of  them  of 
large  value.  Among  them,  greatly  to  be  prized  during  all  their 
lives,  was  a  beautiful  album,  richly  bound  in  velvet,  containing 
father,  mother,  six  children,  with  their  husbands  and  wives  and 
twelve  grandchildren.  There  were  seven  silver  ladles,  with  gold 
linings,  and  each  in  its  superb  velvet  case.  A  beautiful  gold-handled 
silk  umbrella,  manufactured  in  Baltimore  expressly  for  the  occasion, 
was  a  pleasant  and  unique  offering.  Several  new-style  parlor  orna- 
ments in  golden  bronze  were  attractive  to  look  upon.  A  large 
double  metal-framed  highly  polished  desk  inkstand  for  the  editorial 
table  of  the  Maryland  Farmer.  In  addition  were  many  precious 
gifts,  such  as  gold  pens,  pencils,  studs,  eye-glass  chain,  silver  card- 
basket,  gold  souvenirs- made  from  gold  direct  from  the  California 
mines,  several  pieces  of  gold  coin,  and  a  large  number  of  beautiful 
bouquets,  basket  of  flowers,  etc.  One  of  the  best  gifts  was  a  large- 
sized  satin,  hand-painted  sachet,  in  richness  of  workmanship  and 
perfume  fit  for  a  royal  boudoir. 

Decoeations. — The  entire  dwelling  was  decorated  with  excep- 
tional taste  under  the  direction  of  Mr.  Black,  the  florist,  who  has 
the  reputation  of  standing  No.  1  in  this  department.  The  marble 
mantel  in  the  parlor  was  literally  covered  with  rosebuds  and  cut 
flowers,  while  a  large  number  of  potted  plants  of  rare  beauty  formed 
in  the  bay-window  a  sylvan  grotto,  in  front  of  which  hung  the  heavy 
lace  curtains  with  the  very  appropriate  and  significant  dates — '  1836- 
1886,'  Here  Mr.  and  Mrs.  Whitman  received  their  guests.  Potted 
plants  were  also  ornamenting  the  hall  and  flowers  and  festoons  of 
green  were  to  be  met  with  on  all  hands ;  the  mirrors,  curtains, 
chandeliers,  etc.,  were  wreathed  in  smilax,  and  the  whole  was  a 
feast  for  the  eyes  of  those  who  loved  the  beautiful. 

The  Suppee. — About  10  o'clock  the  dining-room  doors  were 
thrown  open  and  the  company  were  invited  to  the  supper.  The 
table  stood,  a  'thing  of  beauty,'  in  the  center  of  the  spacious  dining- 
room.  The  center  piece  was  a  pyramid  of  fruits  standing  under 
the  chandelier  and  aspiring  well  up  towards  its  pendant  lights ; 
oranges,  grapes  and  flowers  vied  with  each  other  in  making  it  beau- 
tiful. Mountains  of  cakes,  meringues,  ice  cream  in  various  shapes 
and  styles,  adorned  the  table.  The  substantial  also  held  their  own 
in  turkeys,  oysters,  etc.     From  forty  to  fifty  occupied  the  dining-

room  at  the  same  time  while  the  supper  was  going  on,  and  always 
during  the  evening  the  crowd  of  friends  were  congratulating  the 
bride  and  groom  in  the  parlor.  Before  the  old  year  expired  it  was 
suggested  by  members  of  the  guests  that  the  couple  whose  fiftieth 
anniversary  they  were  celebrating  should  be  again  married,  and  the 
Rev.  H.  R.  Walworth,  who  was  present,  was  called  upon  for  the 
ceremony.  Straightway  all  the  children  and  grandchildren  were 
brought  forward  on  the  right  and  left  of  the  bride  and  groom,  and 
a  most  interesting  ceremony  of  an  informal  character  was  listened 
to  with  smiling  approbation  by  the  large  company.  Soon  after  the 
striking  of  JSTew  Year  bells,  with  many  '  Happy  New  Year '  greet- 
ings to  bride  and  groom,  the  gathering  dispersed.

Harrison  Co.,  Ind.,  April  18,  1858,  Amelia  H.,  daughter  of  Col. 
St.  Clair  Young ;  the  following  is  taken  entire  from  "  Biographi- 
cal Sketches  of  Eminent  Men  of  Kansas  :" 

"  His  parents  emigrated  to  Louisville,  Ky.,  when  he  was  but  8 
years  old,  where  his  mother  died  when  he  was  but  12  years  old  and 
he  was  then  sent  to  Maine  by  his  father,  and  classically  educated  at 
the  Maine  Wesleyan  Seminary,  at  Kent's  Hill.  On  completing  his 
education  he  removed  to  Corydon,  Harrison  Co.,  Ind.,  where  he 
studied  law  with  Hon.  Thomas  C.  Slaughter,  and  Hon.  W.  Q. 
Gresham,  the  former  now  judge  of  the  district  court,  and  the  latter 
judge  of  the  United  States  district  court  of  Indiana,  two  of  the 


348  THE   DESCENDANTS   OF 

most  emiuent  jurists  of  the  State.  On  being  admitted  to  the  bar 
he  formed  a  law  partnership  with  Judge  Gresham,  and  established 
an  office  at  Leavenworth,  Crawford  Co.,  Ind.,  where  he  practiced 
law  for  a  short  time,  wlien  he  removed  to  Corydon,  purchased  and 
took  possession  of  the  Corydon  Argtis,  and  continued  it  until  after 
the  commencement  of  Lincoln's  administration,  ably  advocating  the 
Republican  cause.  This  position  he  relinquished  to  accept  an  appoint- 
ment in  the  Interior  Department,  and  was  on  his  way  to  Washington 
from  Philadelphia  and  had  reached  Havre  de  Grace,  Maryland, 
when  the  Massachusetts  troops  were  fired  into  at  Baltimore  (the 
first  blood  slied  in  the  war),  and  the  bridges  between  him  and  Balti- 
more burned.  He  then  rejoined  his  wife  at  Livermore,  Me.,  where 
she  was  visiting,  and  remained  there  until  the  first  battle  of  Bull 
Run,  when,  inspired  with  patriotism,  he,  in  conjunction  with  his 
cousin,  Lee  Strickland,  organized  Co.  C,  of  the  8th  Maine  Yols.,  of 
which  he  was  made  second  lieutenant,  and  his  regiment  being 
ordered  to  Washington  was  assigned  to  the  command  of  Thomas 
W.  Sherman,  in  charge  of  the  expeditionary  corps,  for  the  capture 
of  Hilton  Head,  S.  C,  in  which  he  participated,  and  they  after- 
wards erected  the  fortifications  for  the  protection  of  the  harbor, 
then  the  headquarters  of  the  southern  naval  station.  On  account 
of  being  attacked  with  coast  fever,  he  resigned  his  commission,  re- 
turned to  Indiana,  and,  on  recovering,  aided  in  enlisting  and  organ- 
izing the  81st  Indiana  Regiment,  of  which  he  was  commissioned 
first  lieutenant  and  adjutant.  He  participated  in  the  battles  of 
Perryville  and  Stone  River.  He  afterwards  assisted  in  organizing 
the  13th  Indiana  Cavalry,  and  with  it  participated  in  the  battles  of 
Nashville  and  Mobile,  under  command  of  General  Hatch.  This 
command  received  news  of  Lee's  surrender  at  Eufaula,  Alabama, 
while  on  an  ex|3edition  under  General  Grierson,  and  he  was  detailed 
as  confidential  clerk  in  the  adjutant-general's  office,  for  the  Northern 
District  of  Mississippi,  headquarters  at  Jackson,  under  General 
Osterhaus,  in  which  position  he  served  until  mustered  out  in  Oct., 
1865. 

On  leaving  the  army  he  returned  to  Harrison  Co.,  Ind.,  and  on 
account  of  the  murder  of  his  uncle  and  brother-in-law,  Col.  John 
Timberlake,  his  time  was  occupied  for  over  two  years  in  charge  of 
his  family  and  estate  and  the  prosecution  of  his  murderer,  as  well 
as  looking  after  his  own  interests  which  had  suffered  greatly  during 
the  war.  In  1870  he  removed  to  Kansas,  settling  in  Cherokee 
Co.,  where  he  has  since  been  engaged  in  the  profession  of  a  teacher 
and  for  the  last  four  years  has  been  principal  of  the  Cohmibus

graded  schools.  In  1876  he  was  the  Republican  candidate  for 
probate  judge  of  Cherokee  Co.,  and  after  an  active,  exciting  cam- 
paign was  defeated  by  a  very  small  majority,  owing  to  a  fusion  of 
the  Democratic  and  Greenback  parties. 

Mr.  Timberlake  stands  among  the  ablest  of  the  educators  of  the 
State.  He  has  made  the  Columbus  schools  a  model  of  order  and 
educational  advancement.  He  is  a  man  of  fine  address,  an  able 
speaker  and  a  patriotic  citizen."  At  present  date,  1882,  Mr.  Tim- 
berlake is  engaged  in  the  real  estate  business  and  located  at  Colum-

To  whom  it  may  concnrn : — 

Whereas,  by  an  act  of  our  Legislature,  entitled  '  an  act  to  authorize  the 
town  of  So.  Abington  to  change  its  name,'  approved  by  the  Governor,  March 
5,  1886,  it  is  enacted  in  the  first  section  that  '  the  town  of  So.  Abington  may 
take  the  name  of  Standish,  Brainard,  Whitman  or  Grandon,  the  name  to  be 
determined  at  a  special  meeting  of  the  voters  of  said  town,'  '  to  be  held  on 
the  first  Monday  of  May  of  the  current  year,  for  the  purpose  of  determining 
which  of  said  four  names  shall  be  the  name  of  said  town,'  '  the  selectmen  of 
said  town  to  certify  and  return,  as  soon  as  may  be,  the  number  of  ballots  in 
favor  of  each  of  said  four  names  to  the  Secretary  of  the  Commonwealth,  who 
shall  immediately  publish  his  certificate  declaring  the  name  which  shall  be 
found  to  have  the  most  ballots  in  its  favor  to  have  been  adopted  by  said 
town,'  the  same  thereupon  to  become  and  be  the  name  of  said  town.  Now, 
therefore,  having  received  fi'om  the  selectmen  of  So.  Abington  a  return, 
properly  attested,  of  the  doings  of  the  inhabitants  at  a  meeting  of  said  town, 
called  for  the  purposes  before  stated,  on  the  third  day  of  May,  1886,  setting 
forth  that  the  whole  number  of  ballots  cast  at  said  meeting  for  that  purpose 
was  five  hundred  and  twenty-three  (523).  Of  this  number,  two  hundred  and 
ninety-three  were  for  Whitman  (293),  one  hundred  and  seventy-seven  were 
for  Grandon  (177),  forty  were  for  Standish  (40)  and  thirteen  were  for  Bi'ainard 
(13). 

I  do  therefore  certify  that  the  name  of  Whitman  has  been  adopted  by  said 
town. 

Witness  my  hand  and  the  seal  of  the  Commonwealth.

19,  1887 ;  no  issue ;  the  following  tribute  to  his  memory  appeared 
in  the  N.  Y,  Nation : 

"Prof.  Ephraim  Whitman  Gurney,  who  died  very  quietly  on 
Sunday,  (Sept.  12,  1886),  after  a  long  and  wasting  illness,  was  bet- 
ter known  to  collegiate  circles  than  to  the  world  at  large.  Probably 
no  one,  except  President  Eliot,  has  had  so  much  influence  in  bring- 
ing about  the  revolution  in  college  discipline  and  curriculum  which 
has  taken  place  in  Harvard  College  within  the  last  sixteen  years. 
During  all  that  period  he  has  been  President  Eliot's  principal  ad- 
viser, and  his  authority  on  all  university  matters  was  increasing 
steadily  in  weight  all  over  the  country  down  to  his  fatal  illness, 
which  was,  indeed,  probably  in  some  degree  due  to  the  strain  of  a 
prolonged  and  exciting  controversy,  over  university  policy  at  Har- 
vard, last  winter.  He  was  by  temperament  a  strong  conservative 
and  this  gave  additional  weight  to  the  influence  he  exerted  on  the 
side,  both  of  the  extension  of  the  elective  system  and  of  the  relaxa- 
tion of  the  old  college   discipline,  which  have  marked  President 


366  THE    DESCENDANTS   OF 

Eliot's  administration.  No  one  was  listened  to  in  the  faculty  meet- 
ing with  more  attention,  and  the  steady  increase  in  the  respect  for 
his  judgment  and  character  was  shown  in  his  election,  within  a  year 
or  two,  to  a  seat  in  the  Corporation  of  the  College,  a  distinction,  if 
we  are  not  mistaken,  not  previously  bestowed  on  a  professor. 

Mr.  Grurney  was,  when  President  Eliot  took  office  in  1870,  Assist- 
ant Professor  of  History,  but  had  made  so  marked  an  impression 
as  the  friend  and  adviser  of  the  undergraduates,  not  more  in  their 
studies  than  in  their  sports,  that  at  President  Eliot's  earnest  request, 
he  assumed  the  office  of  Dean,  which  covers  all  the  penal  side  of 
college  discipline,  and  held  it  for  five  years.  No  man  in  that  place 
can  long  retain  the  popularity  acquired  in  any  other,  but  we  believe 
the  parents  of  many  a  youth  who,  dm-ing  that  period,  found  the 
straight  and  narrow  way  of  industry  and  economy  hard  to  follow  in 
college  life,  can  bear  testimony  to  the  consideration,  the  tenderness, 
and  the  wisdom  with  which  the  stern  duties  of  the  Dean  were  dis- 
charged. No  man  whose  own  career  had  been,  as  Mr.  Gurney's 
had,  one  of  rigid  self-denial  and  untiring  labor,  ever  had  more  sym- 
pathy and  generosity  in  dealing  with  the  errors  and  short-comings 
of  wayward  youngsters,  or  knew  better  how  to  make  words  of  warn- 
ing words  of  hope  and  encouragement.  He  resigned  the  Deanship 
in  1875,  for  a  two  years'  tour  in  Europe  with  his  wife,  and  in  Eng- 
land saw  a  great  deal  of  nearly  every  Englishman  of  intellectual 
eminence,  and  left  behind  him  a  host  of  admiring  friends.  After 
his  return  he  resumed  his  professorial  duties,  first  in  the  chair  of 
Poman  Law,  and  then  in  that  of  University  Professor  of  History, 
which  he  occupied  at  the  time  of  his  death. 

Although  possessing  great  ability  as  a  teacher,  the  calling  for 
which  he  trained  himself  from  the  time  of  his  entering  college, 
he  was  really  perhaps  even  better  fitted  for  the  life  of  a  scholar  and 
literary  man.  A  scholar  he  was  in  the  old  and  best  sense.  He  was 
never  so  happy  as  in  the  still  air  of  delightful  studies.  His  knowl- 
edge of  the  ancient  classics  was  very  thorough  and  his  reading  in 
the  fields  of  philosophy,  law,  and  politics,  in  French  and  German, 
as  well  as  in  English,  was  extraordinarily  wide.  It  was  really  in 
the  quiet  of  his  library  that  his  mind  worked  to  best  advantage. 
To  him  all  necessity  for  haste,  all  noise,  or  tumult,  or  controversy, 
not  only  was  distasteful,  but  made  thinking  a  difficult  and  unfruit- 
ful process. 

His  English  style  was  charming,  polished,  subtle  and  correct,  but 
lucid  and  strong.  Some  specimens  of  it  in  the  earlier  numbers  of 
the  Nation  cannot  be  read  without  deep  regret  that  he  had  not 


JOHN    WHITMAN    OF    WEYMOUTH.  367 

made  literature  his  pursuit.  But  his  love  of  perfection  and  finish 
was  really  too  great  to  allow  of  his  ever  being  a  useful  or  ready 
contributor  to  any  periodical,  and  the  same  devotion  to  high  stand- 
ards made  his  editorship  of  the  North  American  Review  for  a  year 
or  two,  after  Mr.  Lowell  and  Mr.  Norton  gave  it  up,  a  piece  of 
somewhat  painful  drudgery,  which  he  soon  relinquished. 

Mr.  Gurney's  life  was  so  retired,  in  spite  of  tlie  important  part 
he  played  in  the  history  of  education  in  this  country  during  the 
past  fifteen  years,  that  even  a  word  of  tribute  to  his  private  virtues 
over  his  grave  from  sorrowing  friends  seems  like  an  unwarrantable 
intrusion  on  the  privacy  which  he  loved.  No  adequate  idea  of  the 
pleasures  of  familiar  intercourse  with  him  could  be  given  to  any 
stranger  by  any  eulogy,  however  full.  His  almost  invincible  mod- 
esty made  it  difiicult  to  learn,  except  under  his  own  roof  and  beside 
his  own  delightful  fireside,  how  sound  his  judgments  were,  how  full 
and  varied  his  knowledge  was,  how  much  worldly  wisdom  lay  behind 
his  scholarship,  and  with  what  feeling  and  devotion  he  could  enter 
into  the  joys  and  sorrows  of  all  who  had  any  claim  on  his  affection. 
He  is  a  great  loss  to  Harvard  College  and  to  the  cause  of  sound 
learning,  but  even  a  greater  to  those  who  knew  him  well  in  private 
life."

lips Exeter  Academy  in  1844;  graduated  Harvard,  1851;  after 
graduation  Mr.  Dunbar  engaged  in  business  in  New  Orleans, 
and  subsequently  in  New  York,  and  in  1853  became  partner 
in  a  commission  house  in  Boston ;  finding  himself  threatened 
with  pulmonary  disease,  he  withdrew  from  business  in  1855  and 
established  himself  upon  a  farm  in  Lexington,  Mass. ;  his  health 
being  improved  by  life  in  the  open  air  which  the  management 
of  his  farm  enforced,  he  began  to  read  law  and  in  the  spring 
of  1857  removed  to  Waltham  for  greater  convenience  in  that  under- 
taking ;  he  studied  for  a  time  in  the  Dane  Law  School,  and  later  in 
the  office  of  Messrs.  Hoar  &  Gray,  in  Boston,  and  was  admitted  to 
the  bar  and  began  the  practice  of  his  profession  in  1858  ;  but  with 
tastes  which,  perhaps,  were  neither  mercantile  nor  legal,  he  had,  for 
some  years,  given  much  attention,  in  his  leisure  hours,  to  political 
questions,  and  since  the  year  1856  had  been  a  frequent  and  at  times 
a  regular  writer  for  the  editorial  columns  of  the  Boston  Daily 
Advertiser  /  finding  his  attention  more  and  more  engrossed  by  this 
pursuit,  he  availed  himself  of  an  opportunity  which  was  presented 
in  December,  1859,  and  became  an  associate  editor  and  part  pro- 
prietor of  that  journal  with  Mr.  Charles  Hale ;  upon  the  appoint 
ment  of  Mr.  Hale  as  Counsul-General  for  Egypt  in  1864,  Mr. 
Dunbar  became  the  sole  responsible  editor  and  continued  in  that 
position  until  the  summer  of  1869,  when,  finding  his  health 
seriously  impaired,  he  sold  his  interest  in  the  Advertiser  and 
sailed  for  Europe  with  his  family ;  after  two  years  of  rest  and  travel, 
Mr.  Dunbar  returned  home  and  in  September,  1871,  entered  upon 
his  duties  as  Professor  of  Political  Economy,  to  which  place  he  had 
been  appointed  a  few  months  before ;  held  the  office  of  Dean  of 
the  faculty  from  March,  1876-June,  1882,  when  he  resigned ;  for  a 
few  months  in  1884  was  chief  editor  of  the  Boston  Advertiser,  but 
retains  and  still  holds  his  professorship  ;  residence  Cambridge  ;  5  c, 
all  unmarried.

days  were  spent  upon  tlie  farm  at  an  occupation  which  he  has  always 
followed,  and  which  was  well  chosen,  as  any  one  can  attest  who  has 
passed  along  the  highway  leading  across  his  large  and  well-tilled  farm 
and  who  must  have  been  struck  with  the  general  appearance  of  things 
which  everywhere  prevails,  as  well  as  the  general  order  and  neatness 
of  the  surroundings  of  his  beautiful  home ;  the  f acihties  for  education 
were  at  that  time  limited,  and  he  received  only  the  advantage  of  the 
ordinary  district  school  of  the  day ;  ujDon  this  rude  foundation  he, 
however,  reared  a  superstructure  of  general  intelhgence  which  de- 
noted careful  study,  comprehensive  thought,  and  a  ready  faculty  for 
utiHzing  every  resource  of  progress  within  his  reach  ;  the  year  after 
his  marriage,  April  1,  1834,  he  removed  to  Stanbridge,  purchasing 
the  farm  on  which  he  now  resides ;  upon  reaching  the  proper  age, 
became  a  member  of  the  militia  force  of  the  Province,  was  promoted 
to  the  post  of  Sergeant,  and,  1847,  was  appointed  Quartermaster  of 
the  First  Battalion  of  Missisqoui,  retaining  this  important  office  till 
exempt  from  duty  by  reason  of  age ;  1835,  when  only  26  years  of 
age  he  was  appointed  Justice  of  the  Peace,  holding  his  commission 
for  forty-three  years  ;  as  a  magistrate  he  was  fearless  and  impartial ; 
he  took  an  active  part  in  the  suppression  of  the  Fenian  invasion  of 
Canada,  Oct.,  1864,  and  received  the  highest  praise  from  the  govern- 
ment and  the  local  powers  ;  a  firm  believer  in  the  principles  of  Free 
Masonry,  he  has  been  a  member  of  that  order  since  1846  {  enjoy- 
ing ever  the  full  confidence  of  the  community,  he  has  been  called 
upon  at  various  times  to  fill  important  municipal  offices ;  in  the 
church  of  which  he  is  a  member  he  has  occupied  positions  of  honor 
and  trust,  and  has  acted  for  several  consecutive  years  as  delegate  to 
the  annual  synods ;  the  Bishop  Stewart  Memorial  Church  of  FreHghs- 
burg  bears  evidence  of  his  liberality  and  benevolence  ;  never  sacri- 
ficing in  pubhc  or  private  life  principle  for  popularity,  he  has  steadily 
pursued  the  even  tenor  of  his  way,  governed  alone  by  those  higher 
precepts  wliich  ultimately  crown  the  efEorts  of  the  persevering  with 
success  and  a  wealth  of  honor  far  more  enduring  than  the  flitting 
plaudits  of  popular  will ;  3  c.

JOHN  WHITMAN   OF  WEYMOUTH.  395 

circumstances,  and  for  many  years  he  had  a  hard  struggle 
with  poverty ;  at  the  age  of  7  he  went  to  reside  with  his 
uncle,  Rev.  Levi  Whitman  of  Wellfleet,  who  gave  him  the 
rudiments  of  an  education,  and  treated  him  with  a  kindness 
which  he  never  forgot,  and  which  in  a  measure  he  was 
able  to  repay,  when,  in  old  age,  their  circumstances  were 
reversed ;  at  the  age  of  14  he  became  uneasy  at  his  state 
of  dependence  and  determined  to  go  to  sea ;  but  his  uncle, 
who  was  resolutely  opposed  to  such  a  step,  persuaded  him 
to  pursue  the  studies  necessary  to  prepare  him  for  a  liberal 
education  ;  to  this  end  he  was  placed  under  the  care  of  the 
Rev.  Kilborn  Whitman''  of  Pembroke ;  he  was,  however, 
a  wayward  student,  and  though  quick  to  learn  had  not 
formed  habits  of  study  and  application  ;  at  length,  in  1791, 
he  entered  Brown  University ;  though  at  that  time  it  was 
said  that  but  twenty  pounds  a  year  would  nearly  support 
a  student,  still  even  this  amount  was  lacking,  and  only  by 
constant  work-^teaching  school  during  vacation — was  he 
able  to  carry  himself  through;  he  graduated  1795;  upon 
taking  his  degree  he  was  almost  penniless,  and  in  a  fit  of 
desperation  talked  of  joining  a  troop  of  actors  then  per- 
forming in  Providence,  but  his  own  better  judgment  com- 
ing to  his  rescue,  he  abandoned  this  project  and  decided  to 
study  law ;  he  first  studied  for  a  time  with  Hon.  Benjamin 
Whitman*'  of  Hanover,  brother  of  Rev,  Kilborn,  and  later 
with  Judge  Nahum  Mitchell  at  E.  Bridgewater;  1799,  was 
admitted  to  the  bar  in  Plymouth  County,  and  decided  that 
he  would  seek  his  fortunes  in  Maine  ;  in  April  of  that  year 
he  started  on  horseback  for  Turner,  Me.,  the  point  at 
which  he  had  thought  best  to  settle ;  he  remained  here, 
however,  but  a  few  months,  and  in  September  moved  to 
New  Gloucester;  here  he  remained  till  1807,  when  he 
moved  to  Portland  and  soon  built  up  an  extensive  practice, 
and  enjoyed  the  confidence  of  the  community ;  the  appre- 
ciation in  which  Mr.  Whitman  was  held  was  shown  by  the 
efforts  of  his  friends  to  bring  him  into  politics;   1806,  he 


396  THE   DESCENDANTS    OF 

was  the  candidate  of  the  Federal  party  for  Congress,  but 
was  defeated  by  Major  Daniel  Isley  by  a  few  votes ;  at  the 
next  election  he  was  successful  and  defeated  his  former 
opponent  by  three  hundred  majority;  1810,  the  election 
was  a  tie  and  a  new  election  was  ordered,  in  which  Mr. 
Whitman  was  defeated;  he  returned  to  his  law  practice 
with  pleasure,  and  though  enjo3"ing  his  public  life  he 
greatly  disliked  the  protracted  absences  from  home  ;  1815- 
16,  he  was  chosen  member  of  the  Executive  of  Massachu- 
setts;  1816,  was  again  elected  to  Congress,  and  re-elected 
for  the  two  succeeding  terms  ;  1822,  the  Court  of  Common 
Pleas  of  the  State  of  Maine  was  established,  and  the  judges 
consisted  of  Mr.  Whitman  as  Chief  Justice,  Samuel  E. 
Smith  and  David  Perham  as  associate  justices ;  he  contin- 
ued to  exercise  this  office  till  1841,  when  he  was  appointed 
Chief  Justice  of  the  Supreme  Court  of  the  State,  succeed- 
ing Chief  Justice  Weston ;  1848,  he  resigned  the  office, 
having  been  on  the  bench  of  the  State  twenty-six  years ; 
space  will  not  permit  a  review  of  Judge  Whitman's  career 
as  a  lawyer  and  judge ;  as  a  lawyer  he  was  clear  and 
practical,  and  presented  a  case  with  great  force  and  yet 
without  any  rhetorical  display ;  as  a  judge  he  presided 
with  calm  dignity  and  impartiality  except  when  attempts 
were  made  to  practice  collusion  or  fraud,  when  his  latent 
aversion  to  shams  and  deception  made  itself  manifest  in  a 
manner  not  to  be  mistaken ;  the  death  of  his  wife,  after 
more  than  fifty-two  years  of  fond  companionship  and  close 
alliance,  was  a  great  blow ;  he  now  found  his  home  deso- 
late, and  turned  with  a  yearning  for  his  early  home ;  in 
Oct.,  1852,  he  removed  to  E.  Bridgewater  and  sought 
repose  and  relief  among  the  associations  of  his  early  years ; 
in  1832  he  published  a  memoir  of  the  descendants  of  John 
Whitman,  of  which  this  is  in  part  a  continuation,  and  after 
his  return  to  Bridgewater  he  occupied  himself  with  gath- 
ering together  again  the  lost  threads ;  unfortunately  his 
papers  and  memoranda  have  been  lost ;  he  received  the 


JOHN   WHITMAN   OF    WEYMOUTH.  397 

degree  of  LL.D.  from  Bowdoin  College  and  from  his  alma 
mater,  of  which  institution  he  was  for  many  years  the 
senior  alumnus ;  he  was  in  many  things  eccentric  but 
never  vicious,  and  had  a  strong  sense  of  the  humorous ; 
it  is  related  that  when  teaching  school  at  Marshfield  the 
minister  was  troubled  with  a  painfully  hesitating  manner 
of  delivery ;  at  a  particular  time  he  was  unusually  beset 
with  his  infirmit}^  over  some  word,  when  Mr.  Whitman, 
becoming  impatient,  called  out  in  an  audible  whisper, 
"  spell  it ;"  the  solemn  pause  which  followed  startled  the 
young  schoolmaster,  and  threw  him  into  a  confusion 
which  was  only  relieved  by  a  severe  rebuke  from  the 
minister ;  he  d.  Aug.  1,  1866,  aged  90  years,  and  was  buried 
in  Portland,  Aug.  4,  with  testimonials  of  distinguished  re- 
spect from  the  State  authorities  and  entire  community  ;   3  c.

"  Obituary. — Naomi  Gilbert  born  in  Windsor,  Mass., 
May  10,  1802,  and  died  in  Chester,  0.,  July  3,  1884;  she 
was  married  to  Mr.  Joel  Gilbert,  Sept.  25,  1835,  he  being 
one  of  the  first  settlers  in  Chester,  as  also  of  the  first  seven 
members  of  the  Presbyterian  church  of  that  place  ;  she  was 
a  mother  truly,  not  only  to  her  own  children  (six  in  num- 
ber) but  also  to  the  children  of  her  husband's  former  wives  ; 
she  was  left  a  widow,  March  27,  1852  ;  an  only  son,  upon 
whom  she  depended  for  comfort  and  support  in  her  declin- 
ing years,  fell  at  the  battle  of  Chickamauga,  Sept.  20,  1863  ; 
having  been  raised  by  devoted  Christian  parents,  she  iden- 
tified herself  with  God's  children  in  early  life  ;  at  last,  when 
all  hopes  of  recovery  had  fled,  her  faith  in  the  Redeemer 
was  unshaken  ;  she  died  at  the  home  of  her  daughter,  Mrs. 
Walter  Phelps ;  during  the  last  hours  of  her  life  she  was 
heard  to  say :  '  I  shall  go  away  soon — would  like  to  take 
Flora  with  me ;'  now  Flora  A.  Phelps  was  the  grand- 
daughter of  Naomi  Gilbert  and  the  only  child  of  Walter 
and  Charlotte  Phelps,  born  Jan.  15,  1870,  and  apparently 
in  good  health  at  the  time  of  her  grandma's  death,  but  alas  ! 
as  soon  as  she  returned  frorh  the  funeral  she  commenced 
to  fail ;  all  efforts  for  her  recovery  were  of  no  avail,  unless 
it  be  to  the  bereaved  parents  a  consolation  that  all  that  man 
could  do  was  done  ;  just  one  month  from  the  day  of  grand- 
ma's death,  Aug.  3,  1884,  Flora  died  in  the  same  room  of 
quick  consumption ;  she  was  a  thoughtful,  well-behaved 
and  pious  girl ;  she  bowed  at  the  altar  for  prayers  with  her 
parents;  in  the  winter  of  1883  joined  the  Methodist  Epis- 
copal Church ;  she  was  loving  in  spirit  and  though  young 
impressed  every  one  with  her  Christliness ;  when  dying, 
she  desired  to  know  what  she  could  do  for  Jesus  in  heaven ; 
she  was  beloved  by  the  entire   community ;  so  loving  a

daughter,  and  especially  an  only  one,  made  it  very  trying 
for  her  parents,  yet  they  sorrow  not  as  those  who  have  no 
hope,  but  will  find  grace  to  help  in  this,  their  time  of  need."

"  It  seems  eminently  proper  that  a  more  extended  notice  of  the 
life  and  labors  of  Rev.  Austin  Robbins  should  appear  in  the  Chris-

ticm  Seoretary,  for  although  most  of  his  life-work  was  done  in 
other  States,  by  birth  and  in  death  he  was  one  of  us. 

He  was  blessed  with  pious  parents,  by  whom  he  was  '  trained  up 
in  the  way  he  should  go.'  His  mother,  especially,  was  recognized 
by  all  who  knew  her,  as  a  truly  godly  woman,  and  to  her  example, 
instructions  and  prayers,  under  God,  the  son  attributed  all  that  he 
was  as  a  man  and  as  a  Christian.  He  fondly  cherished  her  memory 
to  the  last  day  of  his  life. 

At  the  early  age  of  13  he  became  a  subject  of  divine  grace,  and 
was  soon  after  baptized  into  the  old  Thompson  church,  whose  cen- 
tennial has  just  been  celebrated.  From  the  '  day  of  his  espousal ' 
to  the  day  of  his  death  his  course  was  steadily  onward.  He  was 
never  turned  aside  by  the  '  wiles  of  the  devil,'  nor  by  the  '  cunning 
craftiness  of  men  whereby  they  lie  in  wait  to  deceive.'  Being 
'  steadfastly  minded '  to  serve  God,  he  was  beloved  of  Christians 
and  respected  by  all  capable  of  appreciating  his  character.  The 
testimony  of  one  who  knew  him  intimately  in  public  and  in  private 
is—'  that  a  more  sincere,  conscientious,  devotional  man  it  would  be 
difficult  to  find ;'  and  yet  he  was  a  modest,  unassuming  man,  never 
laying  claim,  to  superiority  in  any  respect.  His  nearness  to  God, 
his  sense  of  the  divine  greatness  and  divine  goodness,  manifestly 
held  in  check  any  tendency  to  '  vain-glory '  that  may  have  lurked 
in  his  nature;  while  his  vivid  sense  of  the  vileness  and  ill-desert  of 
sin  sent  him  often,  as  a  penitent,  to  the  mercy-seat  for  pardon. 

Bro.  Robbins  was  licensed  to  preach  the  gospel  by  the  church  at 
Thompson,  Aug.  2,  1835,  but  was  not  ordained  until  1842.  During 
these  years  he  preached  as  opportunity  offered ;  supplied  for  one 
entire  year  at  Sutton,  Mass.,  and  devoted  what  time  he  could,  as 
the  head  of  a  dependent  family,  to  preparation  for  the  work  of  the 
ministry.  In  this  he  was  greatly  aided  by  the  late  E.ev.  N.  Branch, 
whose  public  and  private  instructions  he  enjoyed,  and  to  whose 
choice  library  he  had  free  access. 

Of  his  more  public  ministerial  life  the  writer  is  able  to  give  but 
a  meagre  outhne.  He  was  ordained  in  Uxbridge,  Mass.,  and  con- 
tinued pastor  of  the  church  six  years.  The  next  twelve  years  he 
spent  in  Maine,  dividing  the  time  as  follows :  four  years  in  Sanford, 
one  in  Biddeford,  where  he  gathered  a  new  church,  and  about  seven 
in  Topsham.  The  next  pastorate  was  of  seven  years  in  Southbor- 
ough,  Mass.,  from  whence  he  removed  to  E.  Killingly,  and  was 
pastor  six  years.  He  had  the  unspeakable  privilege  of  leading 
many  an  inquiring  sinner  to  Christ,  and  of  baptizing  many  a  willing 
convert  into  the  church  that  he  served.     From  the  time  of  his  ordi- 


JOHN   WHITMAN   OF   WEYMOUTH.  409 

nation  to  his  final  resignation  of  the  pastorate,  about  thirty-one  years, 
he  was  but  three  months  without  a  pastoral  charge. 

He  was  early  married  to  a  Miss  Saunders  of  Rhode  Island,  and 
was,  as  we  have  seen,  the  head  of  a  family  when  he  heard  the 
'  effectual  call '  to  the  work  of  the  ministry ;  and  like  the  immortal 
Carey  earned  the  means  to  support  his  family  on  a  shoemaker's 
bench.  The  companion  of  his  youth  died  in  Maine,  and  he  subse- 
quently married  a  Mrs.  Work,  an  estimable  woman  who,  in  this  her 
second  widowhood,  deeply  mourns  the  loss  of  one  of  the  kindest  of 
husbands.  He  has  left  four  children :  one  by  his  first  wife  (who  is 
now  a  wife),  and  three  young  children  by  the  last ;  all  of  them  at 
an  age  when  they  need  a  father's  as  well  as  a  mother's  care.  The 
widow  is  oppressed  with  the  great  responsibility  that  devolves  upon 
her  in  this  direction. 

Our  brother  was  the  subject  of  many  infirmities  for  years  before 
his  death  ;  and  for  some  four  months  his  sufferings  were  very  great, 
but  they  were  borne  without  complaint.  His  disease  was  cancer  of 
the  stomach,  and  to  avoid  more  agonizing  suffering  he  took  but  very 
little  nourishment,  though  the  feeling  of  hunger  was  hard  to  hear. 
He  may  be  said  to  have  lived  upon  himself  until  little  more  than 
skin  and  bones  remained.  The  triumph  of  grace  in  his  case  was 
wonderful.  It  was  a  privilege  to  spend  an  hour  with  him,  and 
witness  his  resignation,  yea,  his  cheerfulness,  and  hear  hiin  express 
the  '  full  assurance  of  hope '  that  he  enjoyed,  and  speak  of  the 
delightful  views  he  experienced  of  the  coming  rest  and  glory. 
Bless  God  for  the  life  and  death  of  dear  Bro.  Kobbins.  '  Let  me 
die  the  death  of  the  righteous,  and  let  my  last  end  be  like  his.'  "

daughter  of  Ezekiel  and  Sarah  (Philips)  Cheever,  b.  Aug. 
26,  1756  ;  he  graduated  at  Harvard  University,  1775  ;  after 
leaving  college  he  prepared  himself  for  the  ministry,  and 
in  1777  preached  as  a  candidate  at  Keene,  N.  H. ;  the  fol- 
lowing year  was  installed  at  Ashby,  Mass.,  remaining  till 
1783;  Jan.  10,  1788,  he  was  installed  at  Goshen,  Mass.; 
Rev.  Timothy  Allen  of  Chesterfield,  the  moderator,  preached 
the  sermon ;  Rev.  Aaron  Bascom  of  Chester,  the  scribe,  led 
in  prayer ;  Rev.  Joseph  Strong  of  Williamsburgh  gave  the 
charge,  and  Rev,  James  Briggs  of  Cummington  pronounced 
the  benediction;  he  remained  at  Goshen  for  over  thirty 
years,  when  his  settlement  was  brought  to  a  close  by  a 
long  and  unpleasant  controversy  in  which  personal  feeling 
had  probably  as  much  to  do  as  principle  ;  he  was  accused 
of  holding  too  liberal  views,  and  a  council  was  called  to  pass 
upon  his  beliefs ;  after  a  long  session  of  nearly  three  days 
they  voted  his  dismissal,  July  15,  1818  (it  was  before  the 
days  of  temperance,  and  among  the  expenses  of  the  council 
was  a  charge  for  120  mugs  of  flip)  ;  a  man  of  strong  feel- 
ing, good  talent,  studious  habits  and  blameless  life,  but  had 
many  peculiar  personal  habits,  and  failed  to  ingratiate  him- 
self in  the  affections  of  his  people ;  reserved  in  manner  he 
probably  had  imbibed  a  good  deal  of  the  old-time  notion 
that  a  ''  minister  was  something  more  than  a  man  ;"  an  in- 
habitant of  Goshen  relates  that  he  was  once  sent  to  the 
minister  with  a  nice  quarter  of  veal  as  a  present ;  his  only 
acknowledgment  of  the  gift  was — "  Well,  put  it  down  on 
that  table ;"  a  neighbor's  son  once  came  to  the  house  to 
play  with  the  Whitman  boys ;  he  was  greeted  by  the  Rev. 
Doctor  with — "  Boy,  what  did  you  come  after  f  "  Nothing,

Sir,"  replied  the  boy  ;  "Well,  take  nothing  and  go  home  ;" 
"  I  have  nothing  to  put  it  in  "  from  the  boy  closed  the  col- 
loquy and  perhaps  the  boy's  respect  for  the  pastor ;  Mrs. 
Emmons  Putney  relates  that  he  was  accustomed  to  preach 
during  the  winter  in  his  overcoat  and  stuff  mittens,  with  a 
red  bandana  handkerchief  as  a  covering  for  his  head ;  des- 
pite, however,  his  peculiarities  his  ministry  was  very  suc- 
cessful, and  about  120  were  added  to  the  church  during  his 
ministrations ;  he  published  some  works,  tliose  of  especial 
note  being — a  sermon  on  the  ordination  of  Levi  Lankton ; 
a  sermon  on  the  ordination  of  Moses  Hallock ;  a  key  to 
the  Bible  doctrine  of  atonement  by  justification ;  and  an 
impartial  history  of  the  proceeding  of  the  church  and 
people  of  Goshen  in  the  dismission  of  their  minister ;  he 
represented  Goshen  in  the  Massachusetts  Legislature  in 
1808,  and  was  always  active  in  town  affairs;  his  children 
inherited  all  his  peculiarities  and  his  ability  to  some  degree, 
though  in  some  of  them  it  almost  took  the  form  of  insanity  ; 
it  is  believed  that  none  of  his  descendants  are  now  living ;

d.  Oct.  21, 1885  ;  the  following  extract  is  from  a  letter  written  by  her 
son : 

"  While  it  is  expected  that  a  son  will  eulogize  his  mother,  yet  with 
the  coolness  of  an  observer  only,  and  in  the  language  of  disinter- 
ested people  acquainted  with  her,  she  was  a  remarkably  devoted 
mother ;  so  far  did  the  interest  in  her  children  absorb  her  time,  mind 
and  energy  that  no  single  act  of  selfishness  ever  marked  her  life ;  she 
was  a  strong  believer  in  education,  and  ever  placed  within  her 
children's  reach  the  highest  educational  advantages ;  she  was  an 
excellent  business  woman  and  manager,  and  her  active  and  am- 
bitious life  so  preserved  the  handsome  girl  that  at  the  time  of 
her  death,  62  years,  she  was  still  handsome  of  face  and  form ; 
of  this  mother  her  three  sons  are  deservedly  proud,  and  time  will 
only  strengthen  in  them  the  love  of  a  truly  ideal  mother ;  God  bless 
her !  a  little  stone  or  none  at  all  is  all  she  would  ask,  this  mother 
whose  self-abnegation  made  her  forget  self,  to  whom  the  great  and 
small  were  equally  God's  children ;  the  look  of  peace  which  is  gen- 
erally on  the  face  of  the  dead  was  rightly  interpreted,  '  my  life-work 
is  finished  ;'  "  3  c,  all  b.  So.  Bend,  Ind.

[Descendants  of  Zechariah',  the  Third  Son.] 


7290.  Elizabeth'^  (456),  Elnathan^  SamueP,  Zecha- 
rialr,  John\  b.  Hartford,  Ct.,  1752;  bap.  March  8,  1752; 
"  she  was  remarkable  for  her  genius,  her  accomplishments 
and  endearing  qualities,  but  she  was,  nevertheless,  singu- 
larly^ unfortunate  and  her  fate  afflictingly  disastrous ;  she 
d.  Dan  vers,  Mass.,  July  25,  1788,  having  previously  given 
birth  to  a  still-born  child ;  on  her  grave-stone  is  the  follow- 
ing inscription  : 

'  This  humble  stone, 

In  memory  of  ELIZABETH  WHITMAN, 

Is  inscribed  by  her  weeping  friends, 

To  Trhom  she  endeared  herself  by  uncommon 

tenderness  and  affection ; 

Endowed  with  superior  genius  and  acquirements. 

She  was  still  more  distinguished  by  humility  and  benevolence  ; 

Let  candor  throw  a  veil  over  her  frailties, 

For  great  was  her  charity  to  others ; 

She  sustained  the  last  painful  scene  far  from  every  friend, 

And  exhibited  an  example  of  calm  resignation  ; 

Her  departure  was  on  the  twenty-fifth  day  of  July,  A.  D.  1778, 

In  the  37th  year  of  her  age. 

And  the  tears  of  strangers  watered  her  grave.' 

To  this  town,  to  avoid  the  insupportable  anguish  of  wit- 
nessing the  overwhelming  grief  of  her  relatives  and  friends, 
her  last  efforts  of  vital  energy,  exhausted  by  wounded  sen- 
sibility, had  enabled  her  to  flee;"  a  novel,  called  ''The 
Coquette,  or  Memoirs  of  Eliza  Wharton,"  was  written  by 
Mrs.  Hannah,  wife  of  Rev.  Dr.  Foster;  published  about 
1789  ;  the  key  to  the  characters  of  the  book  is  supposed 
to  be:  "Eliza  Wharton,"  Miss  Ehzabeth  Whitman;  *'J. 
Boyer,"  Joseph  Buckminster ;  "  Mrs.  Sumner,"  Mrs.  Henry 
Hills  ;  "  Peter  Sanford,"  Hon.  Pierrepont  Edwards  ;  much 
of  the  story  had  its  origin  in  the  fancy  of  the  writer,  and 
some  friend  of  Mrs.  Whitman  published  a  reply,  entitled 
''Eliza  Wharton  Vindicated;"  she  was  engaged  to   Rev. 


500  THE    DESCENDANTS   OF 

Joseph  Howe,  Y.  C.  1765,  who  d.  Hartford,  Aug.  (buried 
Aug-.  26),  1775;  he  taught  the  Grammar  School  at  Hart- 
ford, and  assisted  her  father,  boarding  in  the  family ;  Mr. 
Charles  J.  Hoadly,  State  Librarian,  thinks  that  the  "J. 
Boyer "  of  the  novel  was  this  Joseph  Howe ;  among  her 
papers  after  her  decease  was  found  a  fragment,  of  which 
the  following  is  a  copy,  in  which  is  depicted  the  sorrows 
of  a  broken  heart : 

' '  Thy  presents  to  some  happier  lover  send, 
Content  thyself  to  be  Lucinda's  friend  ; 
The  soft  expression  of  thy  gay  design 
111  suits  the  sadness  of  a  heart  like  mine  ; 
A  heart  like  mine  forever  doomed  to  prove 
Each  tender  woe  but  not  one  joy  of  love. 
First  from  my  arms  a  dying  lover  torn, 
In  early  life  it  was  my  fate  to  mourn  ; 
A  father  next,  by  fate's  relentless  doom, 
With  heart-felt  woe  I  followed  to  the  tomb  ; 
Now  all  was  lost ;  no  friends  remained  to  guide 
My  erring  step,  or  calm  life's  boisterous  tide. 
Again  the  admiring  youths  around  me  bowed, 
And  one  I  singled  from  the  sighing  crowd ; 
Well  skilled  he  was  m  every  winning  art. 
To  warm  the  fancy,  or  to  touch  the  heart ; 
Why  must  my  pen  the  noble  praise  deny 
Which  virtue,  worth  and  honor  should  supply  ? 

0  youth  beloved  !     What  pangs  my  breast  has  borne 
To  find  thee  false,  ungrateful  and  forsworn  ! 

A  shade  and  darkness  o'er  my  prospect  spread 
The  damps  of  night  and  death's  eternal  shades  ; 
The  scorpion's  sting,  by  disappointment  brought, 
And  all  the  horrors  of  despairing  thought. 
Sad  as  they  are,  I  might,  perhaps,  endure, 
And  bear  with  patience  what  admits  no  cure  ; 
But  here  my  bosom  is  to  madness  moved — 

1  suffer  by  the  wrongs  of  him  I  loved  ; 

Oh  !  had  I  died  by  pitying  Heaven's  decree. 

Nor  proved  so  black,  so  base  a  mind  in  thee  1 

But  vain  the  wish.     My  heart  was  doomed  to  prove 

Each  torturing  pang  but  not  one  joy  of  love. 

Wouldst  thou  again  fallacious  prospects  spread, 

And  woo  me  from  the  confines  of  the  dead  ? 

The  pleasing  scenes  that  charmed  me  once  retrace  ! 

Gay  scenes  of  rapture  and  ecstatic  bliss  ! 

How  did  my  heart  embrace  the  dear  deceit ! 

And  fondly  cherish  the  deluding  cheat ! 

Delusive  hope  and  wishes  sadly  vain. 

Unless  to  sharpen  disappointment's  pain."

known  that  he  ever  practiced  law,  though  in  1832  he  was 
clerk   of  the   City   Court   of   Hartford ;    a    correspondent 
writes:    "I  remember  well  Dr.  Whitman,  the   only  edu- 
cated man  in  the  South  Church  at  Hartford,  who  skilfully 
parried  all  inquiries  as  to  his  age ;"  for  many  years  he 
continued  to  wear  the   old-fashioned  knee  breeches,  and 
was  almost  the    last  in    Hartford   to  change   his  style   of 
dress ;   during  the  last  years  of  his  life  he  made  a  daily 
call  at  the  library  of  the  "  WadsAvorth  Athenseum,"  being

he  possessed  a  great  fondness  for  antiquarian  research,  and 
like  so  many  of  that  class  became  very  peculiar  in  his 
habits ;  at  the  time  of  his  death  his  rooms  were  found  to 
be  full  of  papers  and  memoranda ;  he  evidently  never 
destroyed  a  paper,  however  worthless,  and  never  allowed 
his  rooms  to  be  dusted  for  fear  of  losing  something ;  he  d.

of  W.  Simsbury,  Ct,  b.  Sept.  14,  1799;  she  resides  with 
her  son,  Henry  A.,  at  Hartford ;  the  following  is  from  the 
pen  of  his  daughter,  Mrs.  Buell : 

"  He  entered  Yale  College  at  the  age  of  16,  where  he 
conscientiously  devoted  himself  to  his  tasks  during  the  four 
years'  course;  after  graduating  in  1800,  actuated  perhaps 
by  a  desire  to  see  something  more  of  the  world,  perhaps  by 
the  hope  of  obtaining  an  independent  support,  he  went  to 
Bermuda,  off  the  coast  of  So.  Carolina,  where  he  filled  the 
position  of  teacher  in  a  young  ladies'  seminary,  remaining 
two  years,  when  he  was  summoned  home  by  the  sudden 
death  of  his  father ;  some  months  later,  having  decided 
upon  the  law  as  his  profession,  he  entered  the  famous  law 
school,  established  by  Judge  Tappan  Reeves,  at  Litchfield, 
Ct. ;  here  he  developed  that  habit  of  intense  application  to 
study  which  he  retained  through  life  ;  among  the  members 
of  his  class  was  John  C.  Calhoun,  and  although  the  two 
were  very  unlike  in  manner  and  character,  they  were  from 
their  first  meeting  strongly  attracted  to  each  other,  and  an 
intimacy  sprang  up  between  them  that  ended  only  by  Mr. 
Whitman's  death  ;  their  homes  were  far  apart,  and  they  met 
but  seldom  in  after  life,  but  the  distance  was  bridged  by 
letters,  and  time  seemed  but  to  cement  their  friendship  ;  after 
finishing  the  course  at  the  law  school,  he  returned  to  his 
native  town  (then  one  of  the  most  flourishing  in  the  State), 
where  he  entered  assiduously  upon  the  duties  of  a  village 
lawyer ;  he  was  fond  of  society,  and  his  great  beauty  of 
person,  added  to  his  culture,  made  him  a  favorite  there ; 
he  took  an  active  interest  in  politics  as  is  evinced  by  his 
public  writings;  in  1818  he  was  appointed  assistant  judge 
of  the  Superior  Court;  in  1819-1821  was  associate  judge 
of  the  Hartford  County  Court,  and  from  1821-1823  was 
chief  judge  of  the  same  ;  in  1821,  the  confidence  felt  in  his 
ability  was  indicated  by  his  selection  as  one  of  a  com- 
mittee of  three  to  prepare  the  revision  of  the  statutes  of 
Connecticut,  a  work  that  demanded  probity,  sound  judg- 


JOHN   WHITMAN    OF    WEYMOUTH,  517 

merit,  and  an  exhaustive  knowledge  of  the  technicality  of 
law ;  his  time  was  constantly  occupied ;  his  mind  seemed 
so  filled  by  the  grave  duties  imposed  upon  him  by  his 
profession,  that  one  would  imagine  he  could  never  descend 
to  anything  so  frivolous  as  a  flirtation,  but  it  is  said  that 
however  immersed  he  may  have  been  in  study  and  busi- 
ness, he  found  ample  time  to  devote  to  the  fair  sex ;  tradi- 
tion tells  us  that  '  among  his  favorite  books  were  woman's 
looks,'  and  that  he  read  with  equal  interest  the  stories  told 
by  black  or  blue,  brown  or  gray  eyes,  and  sometimes,  it  is 
alleged,  his  wandering  fancy  was  caught,  but  it  was  not 
until  the  summer  of  1820,  when  he  had  reached  his  fortieth 
year,  that  he  married ;  his  wife,  then  not  quite  twenty,  was 
Miss  Emily  Case  of  Canton,  Ct.,  a  woman  not  only  re- 
markable for  her  beauty  of  person,  but  for  a  clear  intellect, 
a  noble-spirited  and  singularly  frank  character;  in  1823 
Mr.  Whitman  was  elected  by  the  Democratic  party  as  their 
representative  in  Congress,  and  entered  upon  his  duties  at 
Washington  in  December  of  the  same  year ;  in  his  first 
letter  to  his  wife  from  that  city  we  learn  that  from  Tuesday 
morning  until  Saturday  at  sunset  was  consumed  in  the 
journey  there,  with  little  opportunity  for  sleep ;  within  a 
few  days  after  reaching  there  he  met  his  old  companion 
and  chum,  Calhoun,  then  Secretary  of  War ;  time,  success, 
and  the  political  honors  heaped  upon  him  had  not  estranged 
this  early  friend,  nor  changed  his  kindly  manner;  he 
greeted  Mr.  Whitman  with  all  the  cordial  familiarity  which 
characterized  their  earlier  intimacy,  pressing  upon  him  the 
hospitalities  of  a  delightful  home,  and  placing  at  his  dispo- 
sal his  private  coach ;  in  this  day  of  horse  cars  and  stage 
lines  we  may  not  fully  estimate  the  value  of  this  last  offer ; 
Washington  was  at  that  time  a  struggling  city,  with  dis- 
tances appallingly  magnificent,  with  walks  and  roads  fa- 
mous only  for  mud,  no  means  of  transit  except  by  public 
carriages,  and  these  few  in  number,  attainable  only  at  ex- 
orbitant rates ;  the  Secretary  of  Legation  during  Jefferson's 


518  THE    DESCENDANTS   OF 

administration  says :  '  In  going  to  assemblies  one  had  to 
drive  three  or  four  miles  within  the  city  bounds,  and  very 
often  at  the  risk  of  an  overturn,  or  being  what  is  termed 
stalled  or  stuck  in  the  mud,  when  one  can  neither  go  back- 
ward or  forward,  and  either  loses  one's  shoes  or  one's  pa- 
tience ;'  Mr.  Whitman  spent  many  pleasant  hours  at  Mr.  Cal- 
houn's house,  meeting  there  the  charming  circle  of  friends 
that  Mr.  Calhoun's  true  southern  hospitality  and  rare  conver- 
sational talent  gathered  about  him  ;  from  one  of  Mr.  Whit- 
man's letters  we  quote  :  '  Mr.  Calhoun  is  almost  universally 
considered  as  the  most  efficient  member  of  the  government ;' 
Mr.  Whitman's  term  at  Washington  was  when,  under  the 
administration  of  Monroe,  the  country  was  enjoying  several 
years  of  well-earned  peace  and  prosperity,  disturbed  by  no 
wars  nor  rumors  of  wars,  and  but  few  political  conflicts,  so 
that  his  days  there,  instead  of  being  full  of  thrilling  inci- 
dent, were  passed  in  uneventful  quiet ;  he  says :  '  The 
business  of  (Jongress  sometimes  becomes  quite  tedious,  long 
speeches  are  made  which  are  lieard  by  very  few,  and  many 
printed  which  were  intended  almost  solely  for  that  purpose  ; 
I  cannot  bring  myself  to  make  speeches  for  such  purposes, 
nor  without  any  prospect  (as  is  so  often  the  case)  of  having 
any  effect  u|)on  the  question  in  debate ;  a  good  degree  of 
harmony  still  subsists  among  the  members,  though  the 
transactions  relating  to  the  nomination  of  President  for  a 
time  caused  some  excitement ;  it  was  soon  over ;  I  met  for 
a  few  days  some  sour  looks  on  account  of  the  part  I  took 
in  that  business,  but  I  have  thereby  gained  more  permanent 
friends  than  temporary  enemies ;'  his  course  there  evinced 
high  integrity ;  he  advocated  only  such  measures  as  his 
judgment  approved,  entirely  regardless  of  the  loss  or  gain 
of  political  popularity ;  in  a  letter  written  during  his  last 
winter  there,  referring  to  the  election  of  Mr.  Adams  for 
President,  he  says  :  '  I  can  hardly  conceive  of  a  great  ques- 
tion that  has  for  so  long  a  time  agitated  our  whole  country 
being  settled  in  a  more  quiet  way  than  was  done  last  Wed- 


JOHN   WHITMAN   OF    WEYMOUTH.  519 

nesday  ;  there  was  no  tumult,  or  harsh  expression  or  looks, 
among  the  members,  and  I  have  never  known  so  much 
harmony  and  good  feeling  among  members  of  Congress  as 
exists  at  this  time ;  though  all  are  not  satisfied,  yet  all 
appear  disposed  to  acquiesce  without  complaining;'  the 
social  life  at  the  capital  he  ver}^  much  enjoyed,  fully  appre- 
ciating the  friendships  formed  ;  in  letters  he  says  :  '  Parties 
and  society  here  are  very  elegant,  exceeding  in  splendor 
what  in  Connecticut  can  hardly  be  imagined ;'  of  a  party 
given  by  Mrs.  Adams,  on  the  8th  of  January  (when  Mr, 
Adams  was  Secretary  of  State),  intended  in  part  for  a  cele- 
bration of  Gen.  Jackson's  victory,  he  says :  '  More  than  a 
thousand  invitations  were  given,  and  nearly  as  many 
attended,  Gen.  Jackson  the  most  conspicuous  figure ;  Mrs. 
Jackson  is  of  ordinary  appearance  but  attracts  much  atten- 
tion ;'  of  Mrs.  Adams  on-  that  occasion  he  says  :  '  Her  ap- 
pearance, the  richness  and  elegance  of  her  dress,  surpassed 
anything  of  the  kind  I  had  ever  seen — I  think  could  not 
be  exceeded  by  any  of  court  ladies  of  Europe ;'  speaking 
of  the  first  dinner  he  attended  at  Mr.  Calhoun's  as  a  delisfht- 
ful  occasion,  and  by  way  of  comparison  to  a  dinner  with 
the  President  directly  after,  he  says :  '  The  entertainment 
was  no  finer  than  at  Mr.  Calhoun's,  except  in  the  table  fur- 
niture ;  the  knives,  forks  and  spoons  at  the  President's 
table  were  of  gold ;'  after  returning  from  Washington  he 
resumed  his  practice ;  in  a  bare  little  room,  undecorated 
save  by  an  occasional  cobweb,  and  containing  the  plainest 
of  furniture,  he  spent  every  hour  at  his  command,  greedily 
absorbing  every  thought  and  fancy  of  the  books  with  which 
he  surrounded  himself;  every  new  study  he  looked  upon 
as  a  recreation  ;  no  matter  how  dry  the  subject  it  interested 
him ;  he  plunged  into  history,  Greek  and  Latin,  classics, 
systems  of  weights  and  measures,  dramas,  novels  and 
poems,  ancient  and  modern ;  he  made  of  books,  not  task- 
masters but  friends  and  companions,  introducing  them  affec- 
tionately to   visitors;    his  daughter  amused  her  children 


520  THE   DESCENDANTS   OF 

often  by  telling  them  of  the  novel  entertainment  he  pro- 
vided for  her  when  she,  a  girl  of  eleven,  visited  him  in  his 
sanctum ;  he  spread  before  her  such  childish  stories  as  the 
'  Iliad,'  '  King  Lear,'  '  the  Rape  of  the  Lock,'  tempting  her 
to  read  them  by  the  offer  of  a  bunch  of  raisins ;  as  years 
rolled  by  he  gradually  withdrew  from  all  society  save  a 
chosen  circle  of  personal  friends,  for  whom  he  ever  had  a 
hospitable,  cordial  greeting ;  silent,  thoughtful,  taciturn, 
almost  moody,  we  are  bound  to  say  his  manner  in  his  later 
years  repelled  rather  than  conciliated,  but  if  a  subject  was 
broached  that  aroused  his  interest  or  tempted  from  him  a 
reply,  his  keen  and  subtle  insight,  his  quick  appreciation, 
the  ripe  scholarship  and  culture  he  displayed,  converted 
the  indifferent  and  prejudiced  into  partisans  and  admirers ; 
the  reserve  which  seemed  to  take  possession  of  him  as  he 
advanced  in  life,  so  unlike  his  manner  in  earlier  da3^s,  was 
partly  the  result  of  disappointment  and  successive  pecuniary 
misfortunes,  and  partly  from  disease  which  developed  in 
middle  life  and  proved  incurable ;  in  this  quiet,  uneventful 
manner,  uninterrupted  save  by  occasional  calls  to  a  neigh- 
boring court,  and  now  and  then  a  term  in  the  State  Legis- 
lature, his  days  and  years  passed  until,  on  Nov.  13,  1841, 
in  twenty-four  hours  after  an  attack  of  apoplexy,  during 
which  he  had  not  a  conscious  moment,  his  life  ended ;"

Farmington,  and  occupied  his  father's  homestead,  which 
stood  on  the  lot  now  owned  and  occupied  by  Mr.  Julius 
Gay ;  he  inherited  much  of  his  father's  hard  common 
sense,  and  though  peculiar  in  his  manner,  was  a  man  of 
more  than  ordinary  education  ;  he  held  the  office  of  Judge

1862,  aged  70;  she  d.  July  30,  1868,  aged  75;  5  c. 


7551.  1.  Elizabeth^,  b.  Feb.  4,  1826;  m.  May  29,  1844,  Dr. 
William  T.  G.  Morton,  b.  Charlton,  Mass.,  Aug.  9, 1819  ;  he  studied 
medicine  and  followed  his  profession  for  many  years ;  he  is  best 
known  to  the  world  by  his  discovery  of  Anaesthesia,  a  discovery 
upon  the  importance  of  which  it  is  needless  to  enlarge ;  as  Prof. 
S,  D.  Gross  of  Philadelphia  says :  "  If  America  had  contributed 
nothing  more  to  the  stock  of  human  happiness  than  Anaesthesia, 
the  world  would  owe  her  an  everlasting  debt  of  gratitude  ;"  at  the 
time  of  making  this  discovery  in  1846,  Dr.  Morton  was  a  young 
man  of  27  years,  industriously  making  his  own  way  through  the 
world ;  early  thrown  upon  his  own  resources  by  an  unfortunate 
business  venture  of  his  father's,  but  with  a  good  New  England 
academy  education,  moderate  ambitious  courage,  and  a  clear  con- 
science to  back  him,  he  had  started  out,  and  had  met  those  obstacles 
which  usually  attend  the  career  of  the  self-made  man — obstacles 
which,  while  they  delay  success,  at  the  same  time  develop  character  ; 


524  THE    DESCENDANTS    OF 

his  final  goal  was  the  attainment  of  a  medical  degree  and  the  prac- 
tice of  medicine  ;  with  this  in  view  he  had  already,  in  1844,  entered 
his  name  as  a  student  in  the  office  of  a  physician  in  Boston,  and 
had  shortly  afterward  matriculated  in  the  Harvard  Medical  School, 
where  he  faithfully  attended  the  courses  of  lectures ;  while  still  a 
student  of  medicine,  practicing  the  allied  branch  of  dentistry  by 
the  way  as  a  means  of  support,  his  attention  became  fixed  upon  the 
anaesthetic  properties  of  sulphuric  ether ;  soon  came  his  announce- 
ment of  success  in  its  use,  and  the  all-absorbing  controversy  which 
ensued  of  course  precluded  further  medical  studies  ;  afterward  the 
honorary  degree  of  M.D.  was  conferred  upon  him  by  the  Washing- 
ton University,  Baltimore,  Md. ;  subsequent  to  his  discovery.  Dr. 
Morton's  life  was  largely  spent  in  defending  his  rights  against  the 
pretensions  of  after-claimants ;  these  pretensions  are  now  happily 
set  at  rest  by  the  almost  unanimous  verdict  of  the  scientific  world, 
which  agrees  with  the  six  U.  S.  Congressional  reports  of  the  Massa- 
chusetts General  Hospital,  affirming  the  validity  and  justice  of  Dr. 
Morton's  claims  as  the  real  discover  and  inventor ;  the  main  points 
of  this  report  briefly  summarized  are  : 

"  I.  Universal  practical  Anaesthesia  by  inhalation  began  in  1846. 
Before  this  date  pain  in  medicine  and  surgery  was  inevitable.  After 
this  date  pain  was  avoidable — safely,  efficiently  and  consecutively. 
Thus  voluntary  escape  from  pain  formed  an  epoch  in  the  world's 
history,  dating  from  1846 — an  epoch  marked  by  a  striking  revolu- 
tion in  medicine  and  by  inexpressible  relief  to  the  human  race.  This 
epoch  owed  its  birth  to  the  revelation  made  to  the  world  that  sul- 
phuric ether,  properly  managed,  would  produce  complete  insensi- 
bility to  pain.  This  revelation  was  made  by  Dr.  W.  T.  G.  Morton 
of  Boston.  He  issued  the  new  facts.  Immediate  adoption  and 
practice  were  a  consequence  of  his  announcement.  The  world's 
knowledge  of  the  subject  came  from  him.  The  very  word  was 
coined  to  meet  his  new  facts. 

II.  After-claimants  now  arose,  none  of  whom  before  this  date 
(1846)  had  made  any  printed  or  written  claim  before  scientific  socie- 
ties or  the  general  or  medical  public  of  ever  having  discovered  any- 
thing in  regard  to  Anaesthesia. 

III.  The  first  after-claimant  was  Dr.  C.  T.  Jackson  of  Boston. 
His  claim  was  that  of  suggestive  science.  He  claimed  to  have  said  : 
'  Try  ether.'  The  knowledge  conveyed  in  this  suggestion  was  com- 
mon to  text-books,  and,  further,  superfluous  to  Dr.  Morton,  who  had 
already  been  'trying  ether'  during  many  months.     Dr.   Jackson 


JOHN    WHITMAN    OF   WEYMOUTH.  525 

himself  had  never  tried  ether  with  a  view  of  annuning  pain,  nor 
performed  a  single  experiment.  Dr.  Jackson  then  claimed  that  Dr. 
Morton  had  worked  under  his  directions.  This  statement  is  dis- 
proved bj  incontrovertible  evidence.  Neither  Jackson's  hand,  nor 
influence,  assistance  or  advice  was  recognized,  heard  of  or  suspected 
by  any  of  the  participators  in  the  early  decisive  test  operations,  or, 
indeed,  any  other  operation,  first  or  last. 

IV.  The  second  after-claimant  was  Dr.  Wells  of  Hartford.  His 
claim  was  that  of  unrecorded  priority.  He  referred  back  to  1844, 
to  'twelve  or  fifteen'  experimental  cases  of  tooth-pulling.  His 
results  were  variable.  There  was  no  sequence  to  his  experiments. 
In  the  next  year  even  (1845)  there  was  no  such  thing  as  Anaesthesia 
known  or  practiced.  Dr.  Wells'  method  was  insufficient.  He  him- 
self abandoned  it.  No  one  else  at  the  time  pursued  it.  After  ether 
Anaesthesia  became  world-wide,  he  made  several  public  failures  to 
produce  Anaesthesia  by  nitrous  oxide,  particularly  in  1847.  The 
secret  of  nitrous-oxide  Anaesthesia  was  not  discovered  until  1848, 
and  then  not  by  Dr.  Wells,  and  was  not  practiced  until  1863. 

Y.  The  third  after-claimant  was  Dr.  C.  W.  Long  of  Georgia,  a 
claim  also  of  unrecorded  priority,  not  advanced,  indeed,  until  1849, 
but  revived  with  additions  in  1877.  He  referred  back  to  '  five  cases 
of  minor  surgery,'  occurring  in  1842-46.  Long,  on  his  own  admis- 
sions, did  not  produce  what  to-day  is  termed  Anaestliesia ;  his 
'  efEects '  depended  upon  the  voluntary  self -administration  of  the 
ether  by  the  patient  to  himself  ;  his  method  was  insufficient ;  his 
results  indecisive  ;  and  he  also  distinctly  abandoned  his  use  of  ether, 
as  being  of  too  '  short  duration '  for  tooth-pulling  even,  and  incapa- 
ble of  maintenance  by  constant  inhalation.  His  attempts,  like 
Wells,  had  no  sequence.  In  the  mere  use  of  ether  by  inhalation  to 
allay  pain — to  a  greater  extent,  even,  than  he  used  it — he  had 
already  been  anticipated  by  others,  notably  by  William  Wright, 
Esq.,  surgeon  aurist  to  Queen  Charlotte  of  England,  1829.  Dr. 
Long  had  absolutely  no  relation  with  the  event  of  1846  which  con- 
stituted the  Anaesthesia  known  to-day.  If,  finally,  he  had  really 
made  the  discovery  in  1842,  he  deserves  the  execration  rather  than 
the  praise  of  mankind  for  not  having  made  it  public,  for  he  is  then 
responsible  for  the  sum  total  of  human  agony  endured  from  1842 
to  1846.  It  is  impossible  to  believe  that,  if  he  had  been  successful 
in  his  five  experiments,  he  would  have  been  cruel  enough  to  have 
kept  his  knowledge  to  himself,  or,  on  the  other  hand,  so  unconscious 
of  the  value  of  his  success  as  not  to  have  published  his  knowledge 
in  some  medical  journal. 


526  THE   DESCENDANTS   OF 

yi.  There  are  also  numerous  other  after-claimants  whose  claims 
are  not  at  present  especially  urged,  and  not  therefore  alluded  to. 

VII.  Dr.  Morton's  contribution  to  Anaesthesia  was  in  itself  final ; 
his  effort  brought  all  previous  knowledge  upon  the  subject  to  a 
focus ;  the  past  (up  to  1846)  had  brought  forth  only  abortive 
results ;  the  future  has  added  but  detail  and  substitution.  His 
work,  by  reason  of  its  extent,  its  sufficiency  and  its  completeness, 
now  first  constituted  invention — by  reason  of  its  novelty  and  pub- 
licity was  a  veritable  revelation.  And  he  had  faith  in  his  convic- 
tions and  in  his  results ;  he  had  the  courage  both  to  speak  and  to 
act ;  what  he  said,  he  proved  and  made  public.  He  demonstrated 
that  ether  would  produce  complete,  safe  and  i-epeatable  insensibility 
to  pain  (before  unproven  by  ether  or  by  any  agent) ;  that  this  state 
was  applicable  to  surgery  (before  inapplicable),  and  this  he  made 
plain  to  experts  (physicians)  and  to  the  world.  His  labors  stand  the 
true  test  of  invention  or  of  discovery — that  of  a  '  consecutive  and 
continuous  history '  dating  from  the  truth  which  he  made  evident. 
The  world  uses  ether  and  other  anaesthetics  to-day,  not  because 
Long  or  Wells  or  Jackson  used  them  but  because  Morton  used 
them.  Dr.  Morton  and  the  beginning  of  practical  Anaesthesia  are, 
therefore,  not  alone  coincident  but  inseparably  related  as  cause  and 
effect.  He  is,  then,  the  true  inventor  and  revealer  of  anaesthetic 
inhalation — the  true  '  discoverer  of  Anaesthesia.'  " 

He  d.  ]^.  Y.  City,  July  15,  1868 — his  most  enduring  monument

March  14,  1866,  aged  79;  during  his  boyhood  and  up  to 
the  time  of  his  grandmother's  death  in  1799,  he  lived  in 
the  family  of  his  grandfather  Solomon^,  at  the  old  Whitman 
homestead  on  the  main  street;  soon  after  this  Solomon^ 
broke  up  his  household,  and  lived  alternately  with  his  two 
sons,  Solomon"^  and  Elnathan';  young  William  then  re- 
mained with  his  father  and  worked  and  managed  the  farm  ; 
until  1823  he  remained  at  home  with  his  widowed  mother; 
that  year  he  purchased  of  the  estate  of  Adney  Curtis  the 
house  at  the  upper  end  of  the  main  street ;  this  had  been 
occupied  for  some  years  as  a  hotel,  and  Mr.  and  Mrs. 
Whitman  continued  the  business  already  established ; 
under  their  management  Whitman's  Hotel  became  widely

for  an  abhorrence  of  shams  of  every  kind  ;  he  was  naturally 
reserved  in  manner  and  undemonstrative  ;  in  person  he  was

a  Boston  theater,  and  memoranda  of  a  trip  he  and  his 
wife  made  to  that  city  in  1820  for  the  express  pm-pose  of 
seeing  some,  at  that  time,  noted  English  actors ;  he  never 
lost  his  interest  in  whist,  and  could,  even  when  an  old  man, 
out-play  many  a  younger  one ;  the  writer  recalls  with 
pleasure  many  an  hour  thus  spent,  and  with  especial  vivid- 
ness one  evening  of  six  hours'  uninterrupted  play,  when

Henry,  son  of  Jeffrey  Amherst  and  Mercy  (Tracy)  Farnam,  b.  Scipio, 
N.  Y.,  Nov.  9,  1803 ;  d  JSTew  Haven,  Oct.  4,  1883,  aged  nearly  80 ; 
the  parents  of  his  father  and  mother  emigrated  to  Orange  Co.,  N.  Y., 
when  the  latter  were  children ;  the  parents  of  his  father  died  in 
Orange  County,  while  those  of  his  mother  removed  to  Cayuga 
County,  where  they  died ;  his  father  went  to  Scipio  when  about  21 
years  old,  immediately  after  his  marriage,  and  settled  upon  an  un- 
cleared farm ;  he  had  eleven  children,  of  whom  Henry  was  the 
sixth ;  the  subject  of  this  memoir  spent  his  childhood  and  early 
youth  in  laboring  upon  his  father's  farm  in  the  summer  and  attending 
upon  the  public  schools  for  the  few  months  of  every  year  in  which 
they  were  provided ;  though  strong  for  labor,  he  was  especially 
interested  in  books  and  study ;  the  few  books  of  history  and  litera- 
ture which  were  found  in  the  library  and  log-houses  of  the  neigh- 
borhood he  read  with  the  greatest  avidity ;  he  delighted  especially 
in  mathematics,  and  by  strict  studiousness  he  learned  the  elements 
of  trigonometry  and  surveying  before  he  was  16  years  of  age  and 
the  elements  of  algebra  without  a  text-book  ;  in  the  spring  of  1821 
Mr.  Farnam  was  employed  as  rod  man  by  David  Thomas,  then 
chief  engineer  of  the  Erie  Canal  west  of  Rochester,  and  after  three 
months  became  assistant  engineer  and  served  until  the  winter  set 
in,  when  he  taught  school;  in  the  spring  of  1822  he  resumed  his 
post  in  the  field ;  in  1823  he  superintended  the  location  and  con- 
struction of  a  canal  connecting  the  Tonawanda  and  Oak  Orchard 
Creeks ;  he  continued  his  services  till  the  Erie  Canal  was  finished 
in  the  fall  of  1824,  and  taught  school  again  in  the  winter ;  in  the 
spring  of  1825,  arrangements  having  been  made  by  the  Farmington 
Canal  Company  for  the  construction  of  a  canal  from  New  Haven 
to  Northampton,  Mr.  Farnam  was  induced  to  accept  a  position  as 


JOHN    WHITMAN    OF   WEYMOUTH.  531 

assistant  engineer,  which  position  he  retained  until  1827,  when  Mr. 
Hurd  resigned  and  Mr.  Farnam  took  his  place  as  engineer  and  super- 
intendent ;  he  subsequently  iinished  the  canal  from  the  State  line  to 
Northampton  ;  his  connection  with  this  enterprise  brought  him  into 
the  most  intimate  relations  with  the  distinguished  president  of  the 
company,  Hon.  James  Hillhouse ;  though  a  young  man  he  soon  be- 
came to  Mr.  Hillhouse  the  strong  staff  on  which  he  leaned  in  many 
dark  and  trying  hours ;  in  1840  Joseph  E.  Sheffield  became  a  large 
proprietor  and  afterward  almost  the  sole  owner  of  the  canal ;  the  canal 
was  maintained  under  Mr.  Farnam's  management  and  direction,  and 
he  was  brought  into  the  most  intimate  relations  with  Mr.  Sheffield, 
which  led  to  mutual  esteem  and  to  lasting  relations  of  cordial  and 
faithful  friendship ;  immediately  after  his  marriage  he  established 
his  residence  in  New  Haven,  where  he  remained  till  he  removed  to 
Chicago ;  in  1846,  in  view  of  the  change  of  affairs  produced  by 
the  general  introduction  of  railways,  it  was  decided  to  substitute  a 
railway  for  the  Farmington  Canal,  and  in  1848  the  Canal  Railway 
was  completed  to  Plainville ;  it  was  subsequently  extended  to  Wil- 
liamsburg, Mass. ;  in  1850  the  railway  was  leased  to  the  New  York 
&  New  Haven  Railway  Company,  and  Mr.  Farnam  resigned  the 
office  which  he  had  held  from  the  first  as  engineer  and  superintend- 
ent ;  in  the  autumn  of  1850  Mr.  Farnam  was  invited  to  Chicago  by 
William  B.  Ogden,  Esq.,  then  president  of  the  Chicago  &  Galena 
Union  Railway,  with  the  purpose,  if  possible,  to  induce  him  to 
bring  his  engineering  skill  as  well  as  his  influence  with   eastern 
capitalists  to  the  service  and  advancement  of  the  railway  interest  in 
the  great  Northwest ;  this  interest  was  at  that  time  in  its  infancy 
and   was  laboring  under  very  serious  embarrassments ;  what  was 
imperatively  needed  were  perfected  railway  connections  with  Lake 
Erie  and  the  East,  which  would  facilitate  the  ready  access  of  emi- 
grants over  these  immense  tracts  of  fertile  soil  and  bring  eastward 
the  products  which  their  labor  was  certain  to  create ;  then  it  was 
that  Mr.  Farnam  and  Mr.  Sheffield  brought  every  requisite  to  meet 
these  conditions ;  they  were  known  at  the  East  as  possessing  skill 
and  enterprise,  pecuniary  ability  and  integrity,  and  they  had  shown 
a  capacity  for    prompt  and   independent  action    in    railway  con- 
struction which  had  made  them  favorably  known  in  the  best  circles 
in   Wall  street ;  in  1850  Mr.   Farnam  and  Mr.  Sheflfield  were  in- 
vited to  examine  the  route  from  Chicago  to  Rock  Island  with  a 
view  to  their  undertaking  the  construction  of   a  railway  which 
should  connect  Chicago  with  the  Mississippi,  following  in  part  the 
course  of  the  Illinois  Canal  and   River;  they  were  so  favorably

impressed  as  to  agree  to  consti'uct  the  whole  and  to  furnish  the- 
capital,  provided  a  suitable  charter  could  be  obtained ;  while  thi& 
was  pending,  Mr.  Farnam  was  solicited  by  John  B.  Jarvis,  the  chief 
engineer  of  the  Michigan  Southern  Kailway,  to  supei-intend  the  run- 
ning of  the  portion  of  the  road  so  far  as  it  was  finished  ;  to  this  he 
replied  that  he  should  prefer  to  contract  for  its  completion  to  Chicago 
within  a  year,  and  would  pledge  himself  to  do  this  and  to  furnish 
the  capital  on  certain  conditions ;  the  proposal  was  listened  to  with 
some  incredulity,  but  was  soon  accepted  and  the  pledge  was  re- 
deemed ;  in  Feb.,  1852,  a  connection  by  railway  had  been  partially 
effected  between   Chicago  and  Lake  Erie,  the  Michigan   Cential 
Railway  had  been  excited  to  avail  itself  of  the  two  dormant  charters 
of  two  projected  railways,  and  in  May,  1852,  before  the  year  was 
linished,  trains  upon  both  these  railways  entered  Chicago ;  for  the 
prosperity  of  this  city  this  event  was  a  new  starting  point ;  real 
estate  at  once  rose  rapidly  in  value  and  the  city  increased  in  busi- 
ness and  in  population  ;  in  June,  1852,  a  few  gentlemen  from  New 
York  were  invited  to  avail  themselves  of  the  newly  established  rail- 
way connections  for  a  visit  to  Chicago,  and  were  startled  by  the 
observation  from  Mr.  Farnam  that  in  two  years  he  hoped  to  take 
them  by  rail  to  the  Mississippi ;  the  promise  was  more  than  re- 
deemed; in  Feb.,  1854,  the  Chicago  &  Rock  Island  Railway  was 
completed,  and  in  June  of  the  same  year  a  party  of  one  thousand 
invited  guests  were  taken  by  Messrs.  Farnam  and  Sheffield  not  only 
to  the  Mississippi  but  four  hundred  miles  up  the  Mississippi,  to  St. 
Paul,  Minn. ;  no  sooner  had  this  railway  been  completed  than  Mr. 
Farnam  gave  his  energy  and  attention  to  the  construction  of  a  rail- 
way bridge  across  the  Mississippi ;  in  1855  the  bridge  at  Rock  Island 
was  completed  and  the  "  father  of  waters  "  was  made  aware  of  the 
presence  and  triumph  of  its  rival,  the  unbroken  chain  of  railways 
which  has  since  been  carried  across  the  Missouri  and  over  the  Rocky 
Mountains;  in  1853  the  Mississippi  &  Missouri  Railway  Company 
was  organized,  and  in  1854  Mr.  Farnam  and  new  associates  con- 
tracted for  the  construction  of  a  railway  across  the  State  of  Iowa 
from  Davenport  to  Council  Bluffs ;  it  was  completed  as  far  as  Iowa 
City  in   lb5H,   also  a  branch  to  Washington  via  Muscatine ;  Mr. 
Farnam  was  elected  president  of  the  Rock  Island  Company  in  1854, 
and  held  the  office  till  1863,  when  he  resigned  all  active  connection 
with  railway  construction  and  management ;  his  resignation  was 
accepted  with  the  most  flattering  and  cordial  testimonials  on  the 
part  of  the  directors ;  early  in  1863  Mr.  Farnam  took  part  in  the 
organization  of  the  Union  Pacific  Railway  Company,  and  was  in- 


JOHN   WHITMAN   OF    WEYMOUTH.  538 

-%'ited  to  take  a  prominent  share  in  its  management;  for  reasons 
most  honorable  to  himself  he  declined  these  proffers  and  adhered 
to  the  resolution  which  he  had  been  slowly  forming  to  withdraw 
from  active  business  of  every  kind,  and  to  seek  rest  and  refreshment 
by  a  residence  with  his  family  in  Europe ;  he  returned  to  witness 
the  triumphant  close  of  that  struggle  for  national  existence  and 
unity  in  which  he  had  taken  the  liveliest  and  most  passionate  inter- 
est, and  after  crossing  and  re-crossing  the  ocean  twice  afterward,  he 
fixed   his   residence  in  New    Haven  in    1868;    Mr.    Farnam    was 
distinguished  by  a  wise  but  open-handed  liberality  ;  when  his  means 
were  limited,  he  was  a  generous  giver  to  private  and  public  objects ; 
in   proportion    to  their  increase  he   multiplied    and  enlarged   his 
benefactions ;  to  public  objects  without  number,  as  school-houses 
and  churches,  literary  and  religious  institutions  of  every  grade,  he 
was  a  willing  and  liberal  benefactor ;    in  1863  he  gave  $30,000  to 
Yale    College  to  be    expended   for   the  erection  of  an   improved 
dormitory,  the  lirst  of  the  kind  in  this  country  that  was  both  pro- 
jected and  provided  for;  to  this  sum  he  added  $30,000  more,  and 
in  1870  the  building,  which  bears  his  name,  was  completed  and  oc- 
cupied ;  scores  and  hundreds  of  his  acquaintances  and  friends  can 
testify  to  his  thoughtful  and  warm-hearted  generosity  ;  a  very  large 
number  of  persons  who  were  in  his  employment  have  been  put 
in  the  way  of  advancement  to  the  highest  posts  in  railway  con- 
struction and  management,  and  not  a  few  have  been  directly  and 
indirectly  helped  by  him  to  affluence;  the  example  which  he  gave 
of  gentle  kindness,  of  self-sacrificing  sympathy,  of  stern  integrity 
and  of  warm  hearted  interest  in  all  that  promotes  man's  welfare  for 
the  present  life  and  the  future,  is  valued  most  highly  by  those  of 
his  friends  who  knew  him  the  longest  and  in  circumstances  that  try 
men  severely  ;  5  c. 

The  following  is  from  the  pen  of  Ex-Pres.  Porter  of  Yale  College : 
"  New  Haven  buries  to-day  (Oct.  8,  1883)  one  of  its  most  conspicu- . 
ous  and  honored  citizens.  It  is  no  exaggeration  to  say  that  no  man 
has  of  late  been  mere  generally  esteemed  and  loved  than  Henry 
Farnam.  The  prominent  incidents  of  his  life  have  already  been 
given  to  the  public.  It  is  thought  that  some  notice  of  his  personal 
character,  as  it  was  formed  and  developed  by  the  circumstances  of 
his  life,  may  not  be  uninteresting  or  unprofitable.  The  writer  has 
had  unusual  opportunities  to  know  these  circumstances,  and  to  esti- 
mate their  influence  in  forming  a  character  of  unusual  strength  and 
attractiveness,  as  well  as  of  distinguished  usefulness  and  individuality. 


534:  THE    DESCENDANTS    OP 

If  he  shall  write  with  more  ardor  than  may  seem  to  comport  with- 
the  severity  of  truth,  he  begs  his  critics  to  remember  that  he  writes 
from  an  intimacy  of  personal  knowledge  which  warrants  him  in 
speaking  with  confidence. 

Mr.  Farnam's  birth  and  early  training  were  in  Western  New 
York,  before  the  Erie  Canal  was  finished,  and  almost  before  it  was 
projected.  He  knew  much  of  this  region  when  it  was  an  unbroken 
forest,  more  of  it  when  its  wheat  fields  and  meadows  were  filled 
with  stumps  and  many  of  its  roads  were  rough  and  at  times  impas- 
sable, when  produce  was  drawn  to  Albany  and  even  to  many  of  the 
nearest  mills  and  market  towns  at  an  enormous  cost,  and  when 
manifold  inconveniences  as  well  as  hardships  were  familiar  to  the 
daily  life  even  of  the  most  prosperous.  But  he  lived  in  a  commu- 
nity of  active-minded  and  strong-hearted  men  and  women,  who 
recognized  duty  to  God  and  love  to  man  as  controlling  springs  of 
action,  and  who  valued  education  and  intelligence  as  of  supreme 
importance.  The  variety  of  the  population  brought  in  a  certain 
liberality  which  was  strange  to  the  traditionary  New  England  rigor, 
and  the  hope  and  elasticity  peculiar  to  a  new  country  gave  spring 
and  elasticity  to  the  thoughts  and  feelings  even  when  they  led  them 
astray.  His  education  at  home  was  fortunate.  His  own  mother 
was  as  remarkable  in  her  way  as  was  the  son  in  his — simple,  self- 
relying,  benevolent  and  strong-hearted  till  her  death  in  1873,  at  the 
age  of  nearly  eighty-eight.  He  was  a  good  student  and  an  enthu- 
siastic lover  of  mathematics,  pure  and  applied.  Early  in  life  it  was 
his  good  fortune  to  come  under  the  influence  of  Mr.  David  Thomas, 
the  county  surveyor.  Mr.  Thomas  was  a  Quaker  and  a  gentleman 
of  the  plain  and  solid  sort,  full  of  love  and  shrewdness,  who  taught 
him  mathematics  and  surveying,  and  most  of  all  exemplified  in  his 
own  household  the  dignity  and  beauty  of  a  truthful  and  loving  life. 
Mr.  Farnam  never  wearied  in  recalling  and  relating  the  scenes  and 
conversations  which  attended  his  opening  youth  and  manhood,  and 
it  was  evident  that  Mr.  Thomas  occupied  a  prominent  place  in  his 
love  and  memory.  Through  the  influence  of  Mr.  Thomas  and  Mr. 
Davis  Hurd  lie  was  attached  to  the  corps  of  engineers  who  laid  out. 
and  constructed  the  western  portion  of  Erie  Canal,  and  found  in 
this  employment  a  congenial  field  for  the  activities  and  tastes  which 
determined  the  destiny  of  his  life.  That  he  was  able  and  faithful 
was  proved  by  his  rapid  promotion.  That  his  mind  was  stimulated 
by  the  society  and  attractions  which  were  incidental  to  this  life  was 
proved  by  the  astonishing  familiarity  which  he  acquired  with  the 
history  of  the  political  parties  and  the  conspicuous  men  of  Newr 


JOHN    WHITMAN    OF   WEYMOUTH.  535 

York,  in  those  exciting  times  of  New  York  politics,  all  of  which  he 
could  recite  with  the  utmost  accuracy  and  fullness.  Even  at  that 
early  age  he  was  no  idle  spectator  in  political  life,  but  was  an  ardent 
thinker  and  personal  actor  in  public  affairs. 

In  1825,  at  the  age  of  twenty- two,  he  came  to  Connecticut  as  first 
assistant  engineer  in  the  laying  out  and  construction  of  the  Farm- 
ington  Canal.     In   1827  he  became  chief  engineer,  and  from  that 
time  forward  was  intrusted  with  the  chief  and  almost  sole  responsi- 
bility of  constructing  and  managing  and  repairing  the  same  till  1846, 
when  the  railway  took  its  place.     This  canal  was  supported  by  the 
cooperation  of  a  few  citizens  who  gave  cordially  of  their  sympathy 
but   sparingly  of   their  subscriptions.     Conspicuous   among  these 
friends  was  the  Hon.  James  Hillhouse,  who  seems  from  the  first  to 
have  won  his  reverence  and  his  love  to  an  extraordinary  degree. 
The  ardent  and  public-spirited  old  man  not  only  believed  in  the 
success  of  the  canal,  but  was  ready  to  give  to  it  all  his  time  and  his 
strength.     By  day  and  by  night,  in  storm  and  in  sunshine,  during 
summer's  heat  and  winter's  cold,  he  was  with  his  young  engineer 
in  the  field,  encountering  all  sorts  of  inconveniences,  equally  regard- 
less of  them  all.     It  is  not  surprising  that  laden  with  political  honors 
and  not  forgetful  of  his  federal  principles,  abounding  with  anecdotes 
of  other  men  and  other  times  and  overflowing  with  enthusiasm,  he 
should  have  gained  the  confidence  of  such  a  young  man  as  was  Mr. 
Farnam,  and  that  Mr.  Hillhouse  should,  till  the  day  of  his  own 
death,  have  felt  toward  and  talked  of  him  as  an  adopted  son.     There 
were  also  other  good  and  eminent  men  whom  Mr.  Farnam  found  in 
Connecticut,  whom  he  learned  to  respect  and  honor.     Mr.  Hillhouse 
died  in  1832,  the  staunchest  and  sturdiest  supporter  of  the  canalj' 
leaving  Mr.  Farnam  to  bear  the  load  of  its  responsibility  for  several 
years.     ISTew  Haven  was  a  small  city  of  some  8,000  to  10,000  in- 
habitants, with  a  limited  back  country  with  by  no  means  the  most 
fertile  soil,  in  imagined  if  not  real  competition  with  Hartford,  which 
was  surrounded  by  a  rich  agricultural  region  and  commanding  the 
rich  valley  of  the  Connecticut.     What  was  more  annoying,  New 
Haven  itself  was  discouraged  and  disunited  in  respect  to  the  canal, 
the  responsibility  for  which  was  devolved  upon  Mr.  Farnam.     How 
faithfully  and  patiently  he  labored,  by  day  and  by  night,  in  sunshine 
and  in  storm,  his  most  intimate  friends  only  know.     How  quick  he 
was  to  meet  any  summons  of  duty  at  any  one  place,  how  often  he 
drove  in  his  one-horse  wagon  from  New  Haven  to  Northampton 
and   any  place  between   to  meet  any  sudden  exigency,  and  how 
often  that  exigency  involved  a  loss  by  flood  of  thousands  of  dollars,

no  one  biit  himself  and  his  family  can  tell.  The  end  came  at  last, 
the  poor  canal  became  in  small  part  his  property  and  a  source  of 
some  income  beyond  his  salary. 

These  details  are  recited  because  they  were  to  exemplify  Mr. 
Farnara's  character.  During  all  this  period  of  struggle  he  was 
almost  alone  in  labor,  in  watchfulness,  in  self-denial  and  undaunted 
courage,  with  a  scanty  salary  and  no  specially  flattering  prospects 
for  the  future.  His  habits  were  frugal  and  his  savings  were  mod- 
erate. He  was,  however,  generous  from  the  flrst.  This  fact  de- 
serves special  attention  for  the  reason  that  an  impression  may  have 
been  formed  that  the  abundant  and  willing  liberality  of  his  later 
life  began  with  the  large  increase  of  his  wealth,  and  that  the  gener- 
ous gifts  of  his  life  were  simply  the  casual  overflow  of  a  super- 
abundant income.  This  was  by  no  means  true.  Long  before  the 
Canal  Railroad  was  ever  thought  of,  while  Mr.  Farnam  was  pain- 
fully traveling  between  New  Haven  and  Northampton  in  his  one- 
horse  wagon,  he  had  begun  to  evince  that  generous  and  helpful 
spirit  which  was  so  conspicuous  in  the  years  that  followed.  Not  a 
few  of  the  living  and  the  dead  could  testify  that  at  that  period,  by 
his  kindly  help  and  his  generous  confidence,  he  had  aided  many  to 
success  in  the  early  struggles  of  their  life  and  set  scores  of  men  on 
the  road  to  affluence.  One  of  the  most  loving  of  his  friends,  who 
very  recently  died,  was  helped  to  the  beginnings  of  a  considerable 
fortune  by  Mr.  Farnam's  generous  assistance,  which  was  disposed  of 
largely  in  benefactions,  stimulated,  as  he  said,  by  Mr.  Farnam's 
example.     '  So  shines  a  good  deed  in  a  naughty  world.' 

Mr.  Farnam's  subsequent  career  in  enterprise  and  acquisition  and 
liberality  need  only  be  referred  to.  The  change  in  his  circumstances 
made  no  change  in  his  character,  except  as  his  intellect  was  stimu- 
lated by  larger  enterprises,  his  respect  for  great  and  good  men  and 
his  detestation  of  bad  men  were  deepened  as  his  acquaintance  with 
both  classes  was  enlarged,  his  confidence  in  his  own  resources  was 
strengthened,  and  the  confidence  of  the  ablest  and  best  men  of  the 
country  in  his  integrity  and  sagacity  was  more  firmly  fixed.  From 
the  beginning  to  the  end  of  his  career  he  has  been  the  same  self- 
relying,  modest,  affectionate,  true-hearted  generous  man.  His 
career  has  in  many  respects  been  brilliant  for  its  enterprise  and  its 
success.  Many  would  say  that  the  circumstances  which  favored 
him  have  been  extraordinary,  but  on  a  second  view  of  his  career  it 
will  be  seen  that  these  circumstances  have  to  a  large  extent  been 
created  by  his  own  individual  force  and  goodness.  His  connection 
with  Mr.  Sheffield  it  is  true  gave  him  access  to  the  capitalists  of  the 


JOHN    WHITMAN    OF    WEYMOUTH.  537 

-country,  but  his  own  skill  and  integrity  first  won  for  him  the  confi- 
dence of  Mr.  Sheffield,  and  both  together,  with  the  experience  of 
each  in  the  railway  which  was  designed  to  connect  ]^ew  York  with 
Springfield  and  Boston,  were  needed  to  give  effect  to  Mr.  Farnam's 
forecast  of  what  the  railway  would  do  for  the  Prairie  States ;  to 
give  him  courage  to  finish  the  first  link  which  had  so  long  waited 
to  connect  New  York  with  Chicago,  and  which  had  waited  so  long 
for  a  master  to  forge  it,  then  to  connect  Chicago  with  the  Missis- 
sippi, next  to  finish  this  railway  months  before  the  time  agreed 
upon  to  the  well-deserved  profit  of  the  contractors,  to  set  off  toward 
the  Pacific,  and  last,  to  designate  him  as  one  of  the  parties  who 
should  be  among  the  foremost  in  the  first  charter  of  the  Union 
Pacific  Railway  Company.  It  is  worthy  of  notice  that  the  reputa- 
tion for  integrity  which  had  contributed  so  largely  to  these  splendid 
successes  did  not  suffer  in  the  bright  noon  of  his  splendid  prosperity, 
nor  during  the  later  years  of  a  life  which  continued  to  be  successful 
to  the  end.  That  he  should  be  prosperous  was  a  matter  of  course 
with  his  '  troops  of  friends,'  to  whom  he  had  lent  a  helping  hand, 
with  his  knowledge  of  markets  and  of  men,  and  the  sagacity  which 
comes  from  '  old  experience,'  but  his  name  was  never  tainted  vpith 
the  suspicion  of  being  a  manipulating  director  who  'slaughtered  his 
own  railway  in  Wall  street,'  or  a  'receiver'  who  'wrecked'  it  for 
his  personal  profit.  Nothing  was  more  noticeable  than  the  detesta- 
tion in  which  he  held  practices  of  this  sort,  and  the  mixture  of  sim- 
plicity and  scorn  with  which  he  looked  upon  manipulations  of  every 
kind  which  deviated  from  the  obvious  rules  of  business  sagacity  and 
forecast.  Perhaps  the  most  interesting  trait  of  his  character  was 
the  unconscious  combination  of  the  '  prophetic  strain '  which  came 
from  his  wise  experience  and  the  artless  simplicity  of  the  open- 
hearted  childhood  which  he  never  could  outgrow. 

His  public  spirit  was  a  passion.  Wherever  he  lived  he  became 
interested  at  once  in  the  possible  improvement  in  the  community, 
and  he  made  it  a  matter  of  personal  enthusiasm.  When  his  country 
was  in  danger,  though  eminently  a  man  of  peace,  he  threw  himself 
into  the  conflict  with  the  fire  of  excited  personal  feeling,  and  felt, 
as  he  often  said,  that  he  did  not  desire  to  live  if  disunion  was  to 
triumph. 

We  have  already  adverted  to  his  open  handed  liberality  as  begun 
in  his  early  life  and  continued  to  the  end.  The  habit  of  helping 
his  fellow  men  was  formed  in  his  early  business  life,  as  could  be 
shown  by  many  striking  examples,  and  it  was  so  cherished  and  ma- 
tured as  finally  to  become  to  him  one  of  the  chief  sources  of  occu- 


538  THE    DESCENDANTS   OF 

pation  and  enjoyment.  His  ^ifts  during  his  residence  in  Chicago, 
as  his  wealth  increased,  were  incessant  and  various  and  took  ahnost 
every  conceivable  form  of  public  and  private  benefactions,  and  to 
the  end  of  his  life  he  continued  to  send  westward  his  liberal  re- 
sponses to  the  incessant  applications  which  were  made  to  him.  To 
how  many  churches  and  colleges  and  seminaries  he  sent  his  bene- 
factions no  one  could  venture  to  reckon,  nor  how  quickly  he  antici- 
pated some  of  their  calls,  as  in  the  wise  and  loving  telegraph  despatch 
which  he  sent  before  the  fire  in  Chicago  was  extinguished.  It 
would  not  be  easy  to  count  how  many  subscriptions  of  $5,000  he 
has  given  to  astonished  applicants.  His  large  contributions  to  Yale 
College  have  amounted  in  one  form  and  another  to  between  $70,000 
and  $80,000.  His  gift  of  the  drive  in  the  East  Rock  Park,  which 
is  known  by  his  name,  was  thoroughly  characteristic  in  matter  and 
in  manner.  He  did  not  care  to  distinguish  himself  early  by  singular 
or  conspicuous  generosity  to  the  park  for  reasons  that  were  obvious- 
and  honorable  to  himself.  He  was  convinced  that  nothing  but  time 
and  trial  would  justify  the  purchase  of  the  park  and  the  expenditure 
upon  it  of  any  considerable  sum.  But  he  intimated  more  than  once 
that  some  help  would  sooner  or  later  come  if  it  was  likely  to  be 
needed.  When  tlie  time  came  his  gift  was  ready.  He  had  expected 
that  $5,000  would  be  all  that  would  be  required,  but  when  he  found 
that  twice  that  sum  would  be  necessary,  he  gave  the  whole  with 
equal  cheerfulness,  and  the  progress  toward  completion,  with  its 
evidence  of  the  pleasure  and  surprise  which  the  use  of  the  drive 
furnished  so  many,  was  a  perpetual  delight  for  months  before  his 
death. 

To  his  friends  and  neighbors  he  abounded  in  kindness  and  sym- 
pathy. In  their  joys  and  sorrows  he  was  a  thouglitful,  loving 
friend.  His  words  and  acts  were  kindness  itself.  To  his  own 
household  he  was  tender-hearted  and  overflowing  with  sympathy. 
Nothing  hindered  the  expression  of  his  feelings  to  those  nearest  and 
more  remote  except  the  sensitive  timidity  which  was  characteristic 
of  the  man.  Even  to  his  own  children  his  love  was  too  sensitive 
and  delicate  to  bear  expression  by  words.  What  was  true  of  his  • 
feelings  towards  man  was  evidently  true  of  his  feelings  towards 
God.  These  feelings  were  sensitively  cherished  in  his  heart,  but 
that  they  were  cherished  most  sacredly  and  uprightly  there  we  have 
abundant  evidence.  The  language  of  his  heart  was — '  O  my  soul, 
thou  hast  said  unto  the  Lord,  Thou  art  my  Lord.  My  goodness 
extendeth  not  to  Thee ;  but  to  the  saints  that  are  in  the  earth  and 
the  excellent  in  whom  is  all  my  delight.'     He  loved  Christian  men. 


JOHN    WHITMAN    OF    WEYMOUTH.  539 

and  Christian  teachers  and  devout  and  humble  women,  his  own 
mother  preeminently.  He  delighted  in  the  services  and  teachings 
of  the  Christian  church,  in  Christian  song  and  prayer.  He  was 
steadfastly  interested  in  Christian  missions  at  home  and  abroad, 
contributing  largely  to  the  support  of  both.  To  his  own  pastor  and 
to  the  welfare  of  the  Center  Church  he  was  always  most  loyal  and 
friendly,  and  never  failed  to  be  present  in  his  place  as  a  devout  and 
attentive  worshiper.  Many  reasons  from  the  history  of  his  early 
life  might  be  given  why  he  did  not  become  a  communicant  of  the 
church,  but  that  he  not  only  did  justly  and  loved  mercy  but  walked 
humbly  with  God  those  who  knew  him  most  intimately  believe 
most  firmly. 

His  last  days  were  days  of  eminent  blessing  and  peace.  The 
evening  of  the  closing  events  of  his  life  was  singularly  happy  and 
complete.  From  Tuesday  till  Friday  previous  he  had  been  in 
Farmington,  where  he  passed  much  of  his  time  for  the  first  fourteen 
years  of  his  residence  in  Connecticut  and  where  he  married  his 
wife.  On  Saturday  he  traversed  the  Farnam  Drive  to  its  termina- 
tion and  enjoyed  fresh  and  more  than  usual  gratification  at  the  evi- 
dence that  it  was  giving  delight  to  many.  On  his  return  he  called 
at  the  house  of  his  daughter,  Mrs.  Whitney,  to  give  his  blessing  to 
his  grandchildren  there,  then  visited  his  oldest  son  in  his  sick 
chamber,  and  greeted  his  children  after  their  recent  return  from 
their  summer  home.  After  dinner  he  was  solicitous  punctually  to 
despatch  his  accustomed  remittances  to  beloved  relatives  on  their 
appointed  day,  and  was  just  prepared  to  enjoy  his  evening's  quiet 
when  he  was  summoned  to  the  rest  which  remaineth  for  the  people 
of  God.  After  a  brief  paroxysm  he  fell  into  an  untroubled  sleep, 
and  on  Thursday  at  noon  he  passed  from  earth,  which  is  the  poorer 
by  the  loss  of  a  man  whose  life  was  full  of  blessings  and  benefits  to 
his  kind,  leaving  to  his  family  and  to  his  friends  his  loving  bene- 
dictions and  his  blessed  memory.  noah  pokter." 

"Henry  Farnam. — An  honored  citizen,  whose  physical  pres- 
ence, so  gracious  in  its  simple  dignity,  was  itself  a  benediction  —a 
noble  man  whom  none  who  knew  could  fail  to  love — has  passed 
away.  By  a  kind  providence,  his  closing  days  were  for  the  most 
part  free  from  pain.  His  friends  were  spared  the  anguish  of  seeing 
him  suffer,  him  whose  heart  was  always  tenderly  alive  with  sym- 
pathy for  others  and  quick  to  devise  means  for  their  relief.  It  was 
the  privilege  of  the  writer  of  these  paragraphs  to  spend  with  him  a 
portion  of  the  evening  previous  to  the  attack  of  illness  which  proved 


540  THE   DESCENDANTS    OF 

fatal.  The  same  benignity  and  gentleness,  the  same  unaffected, 
genial  courtesy,  which  always  marked  his  manner,  attended  him  to 
the  end. 

Mr.  Farnam  was  a  man  of  strong  understanding.  His  intelligence 
was  quick  and  penetrating.  He  seized  on  the  main  points  of  any 
question  that  engaged  his  attention.  Not  born  to  affluence,  but 
obliged  in  early  life  to  earn  his  own  livelihood,  he,  nevertheless, 
availed  himself  to  the  full  of  the  means  of  intellectual  improvement 
within  his  reach.  Passages  of  good  authors,  like  Cowper,  whom  he 
had  read  in  his  earlier  days,  he  retained  in  memory.  In  an  impor- 
tant degree  he  made  himself  what  he  was.  His  prosperity  was  his 
own  achievement.  It  was  due  to  his  own  manly  energy,  enterprise, 
perseverance  and  uprightness.  But  he  had  none  of  the  faults  and 
foibles  that  are  commonly  attributed  to  self-made  men.  No  one 
could  be  more  unaffectedly  modest.  A  self-respect,  never  obtru- 
sively manifested,  but  serving  as  an  effectual  shield  against  aggression, 
accompanied  that  uniform  consideration  and  regard  for  others  which 
were  inbred  in  his  character  He  honored  learning  and  institutions 
of  learning.  He  indulged  in  reminiscences  of  his  own  honorable 
career  without  the  least  appearance  of  self -flattery,  and  no  farther 
than  was  natural  to  a  man  who  was  looking  back  in  a  season  of  re- 
pose upon  the  events  of  a  successful  and  laborious  life.  His 
occupations  had  brought  him  into  close  acquaintance  with  various 
individuals  of  uncommon  powers  of  mind,  like  James  Hillhouse. 
They  had  known  how  to  value  his  worth,  and  he  in  turn  took  pleas- 
ure in  recalling  his  intercourse  with  them.  For  the  public  men  of 
a  former  day,  especially  for  Webster,  the  men  whom  he  had  heard 
and  admired,  he  had  an  enthusiastic,  yet  discriminating,  admiration. 

A  large-minded  man,  Mr.  Farnam  was  marked  out  for  large 
undertakings.  A  work  like  that  which  he  accomplished  in  con- 
junction with  Mr.  Sheffield,  of  connecting  Chicago  and  the  interior 
cities  with  the  Mississippi  by  a  railway,  was  congenial  not  only  with 
the  business  taste  and  capacity,  but,  also,  with  the  generous  patriotic 
sentiments  which  distinguished  him.  It  need  not  be  said  that  in 
all  his  enterprises  he  was  governed  by  an  integrity  that  could  never 
be  tempted  to  inflict  a  wrong.  He  instantly  turned  aside  from  every 
scheme,  however  enticing  from  a  pecuniary  point  of  view,  the  mo- 
ment he  saw  in  it  the  least  taint  of  fraud.  To  enrich  himself  at  the 
cost  of  other  men  or  of  his  country  would  have  given  him  no  sen- 
sation of  pleasure.  He  might  have  added  vast  sums  to  his  worldly 
store,  and,  probably,  without  incurring  serious  public  reproach,  had 


JOHN    WHITMAN    OF    WEYMOUTH.  541 

be  been  less  scrupulous  in  bis  judgment  as  to  wbat  strict  honesty 
demands  of  business  men. 

Mr.  Farnam  bas  stood  in  tbis  community  for  years  as  an  example 
of  beneficence.  It  was  unostentatious  beneficence.  It  embraced 
the  entire  circle  of  bis  kinsfolk.  But  there  it  did  not  stop.  It  ex- 
tended to  public  institutions  of  education  and  charity,  and  to 
families  and  individuals  without  number  who  were  in  need.  His 
generous  gifts  flowed  out  in  an  almost  incessant  stream.  One  of  his 
very  last  acts  was  the  procuring  of  drafts  to  be  sent  to  persons  at  a 
distance  whom  be  wished  to  help.  Tbis  was  on  the  afternoon  just 
previous  to  bis  prostration  by  illness.  But  there  was  no  day  of  bis 
life  when  death  would  not  have  surprised  him  in  the  act  of  doing 
good  to  his  fellow- men.  Giving,  in  the  case  of  Mr.  Farnam,  ful- 
filled its  idea.  It  was  not  from  vanit}^  or  for  applause.  It  was  not 
even  from  the  pressure  of  a  sense  of  duty,  although  conscience  was 
the  regulative  principle  to  which  he  was  habitually  loyal.  Mr. 
Farnam  was  not  amenable  to  the  censure  which  a  poet  (in  the  '  Vision 
of  Sir  Launfal ')  attaches  to  benevolence  springing  from  the  con- 
straint of  obligation : 

'  He  gives  nothing  but  worthless  gold 
Who  gives  from  a  sense  of  duty.' 

He  gave  out  of  a  heart-felt  sympathy.  Love  was  the  animating 
principle.  The  gift  seemed  to  be  suffused  with  the  spirit  of  benev- 
olence from  which  it  emanated.  It  was  'twice  blessed.'  It  made 
the  giver  happy  not  less  than  the  recipient.  The  service  rendered 
to  a  community  by  a  man  of  tbis  stamp  is  far  from  being  measured 
by  the  particular  benefits  that  result  from  bis  various  benefactions. 
As  an  example  to  others,  as  a  living  illustration  of  Christian  good- 
ness, as  inspiring  men  with  a  higher  conception  of  what  human 
nature  is  capable  of,  as  diffusing  abroad  the  joy  which  arises  from 
a  common  admiration  of  a  noble  and  generous  soul,  the  life  of  such 
a  man  is  of  incalculable  benefit.  In  the  bestowal  of  bis  charities, 
as  in  all  bis  conduct,  Mr.  Farnam  discovered  the  innate  refinement 
of  bis  nature.  He  kept  himself  in  the  background.  He  shunned  all 
noise  and  parade.  Yery  much  that  he  did  was  done  silently,  and 
was  known  only  within  the  limits  of  bis  own  household — the 
bereaved  household  where  that  '  good,  gray  head '  will  no  more  be 
seen. 

Mr,  Farnam  revered  God.  None  who  knew  him  well  could  fail 
to  discern  that  religious  faith  and  love  were  deep  and  controlling 
sentiments  in  bis  heart.     If  be  said  little  on  these  sacred  themes  it 


542  THE   DESCENDANTS   OF 

was  because  they  were  sacred.  They  pertained  to  the  profound 
experiences  which  it  is  more  hard  for  some  men  than  for  others  to 
expose  to  the  light.  In  the  familiar  verses  of  Leigh  Hunt,  the 
angel  had  not  found  the  name  of  Abou  Ben  Adhem  on  his  list  of 
'  those  who  love  the  Lord.'     Then 

'  Abou  spoke  more  low, 
But  cheerly  still ;  and  said — ' '  I  pray  thee  then 
Write  me  as  one  that  loves  his  fellow-men." 
The  angel  wrote  and  vanish'd.     The  next  night 
It  came  again,  with  a  great  wakening  light. 
And  show'd  the  names  whom  love  of  God  had  bless'd, 
And  lo  !  Ben  Adhem's  name  led  all  the  rest.' 

It  has  not  been  the  design  of  the  writer  to  delineate  the  charac- 
ter of  Mr.  Farnam.  That  is  left  to  other  pens  and  voices.  What 
is  here  said  is  but  an  imperfect  expression  of  the  sincere  respect  and 
love  of  one  whose  privilege  it  has  been  for  a  series  of  years  to  enjoy 
the  friendship  of  one  of  the  noblest  of  men.

The  following  resolutions,  presented  by  Councilman  Wheeler  at

of  Common  Council  of  the  City  of  New  Haven  : 

"  The  City  of  New  Haven,  by  its  Court  of  Common  Council,  de- 
sires to  place  upon  record  the  sincere  feeling  of  great  loss  which 
this  community  has  suiiered  in  the  death  of  Henry  Farnam. 

He  has  built  for  himself  an  enduring  monument  in  his  liberal 
gifts  of  time  and  money  to  East  Rock  Park;  yet  more  enduring 
will  be  the  priceless  memory  of  his  incessant  flow  of  generosity  to 
all  charitable  objects,  to  the  deserving  poor,  and  in  every  direction 
where  mankind  could  be  made  happier  or  better — a  peaceful  death 
closing  a  life  conspicuously  tilled  with  good  works. 

The  Mayor  is  directed  to  extend  to  Mrs.  Farnam  in  the  name  of 
the  city  the  sorrow  so  universally  felt."

1869;  soon  after  his  marriage  he  went  abroad  to  continue  his  medi- 
cal studies  at  London  and  Edinburgh ;  in  1871  he  returned  to  New 
Haven  and  settled  down  to  medical  practice,  becoming  one  of  the 
'  visiting  surgeons  at  the  hospital ;  the  recurrence  of  his  old  disease, 
brought  on  by  exposure  to  night  air  when  called  to  attend  surgical 
operations,  interrupted  his  practice,  and  winter  trips  to  the  South, 
as  well  as  a  visit  to  the  waters  of  Aix-les-Bains  in  1877,  failed  to  give 
him  permanent  relief;  during  a  stay  at  Nassau  in  1880  his  ailment 
reached  a  culminating  point,  broke  down  his  system  and  brought  him 
near  to  the  point  of  death ;  ever  since  then,  save  during  his  trips  to 
Litchfield,  where,  with  his  family,  he  has  passed  a  number  of 
summers.  Dr.  Farnam  has  been  almost  steadily  confined  to  his 
room  ;  but  though  trammeled  by  the  disease  which  chained  his 
body,  his  mind,  his  sympathies  and  his  keen  interest  in  out-door 
affairs  never  relaxed :  he  continued  to  the  very  last  the  kind  and 
gracious  counselor  of  family  and  friends,  the  tender  father  and  hus- 
band and  the  good  citizen,  whose  works  of  charity  and  cheer  reached 
far  beyond  the  narrow  bounds  of  his  sick-room  ;  d.  Dec.  22,  1886 ;

"A  Fkiend's  Tribute. — The  life  of  Dr.  Farnam  has  for  the 
most  part  been  a  life  of  severe  and  protracted  suffering,  endured 
with  heroic  patience,  conquered  by  strong  and  steadfast  resolution 
and  sweetened  by  affectionate  sympathy.  From  the  age  of  fifteen 
he  has  been  visited  with  acute  and  insidious  suffering  which  finally 
broke  up  his  cherished  plans  and  fond  expectations  for  a  college 
education,  and  constantly  limited  his  ardent  interest  in  the  medical 
profession,  in  which  he  subsequently  developed  an  intense  enthusi- 
asm. No  pains  or  money  were  spared  for  his  relief,  but  he  could 
not  escape  the  heritage  of  pain  which  from  one  year  to  another 
claimed  him  more  completely  for  itself.  At  last  he  was  bound  hand 
and  foot  in  almost  every  muscle  and  joint,  in  a  fixed  position  for 
years,  such  as  few  men  would  easily  endure  for  an  hour.  And  yet 
under  all  this  suffering  his  mind  seemed  to  be  more  and  more  bright. 
His  interest  in  men  and  events  was  more  and  more  fresh  and  his 
thoughtful  love  for  his  friends  more  and  more  tender  and  affection- 
ate. His  wise  and  tender  care  for  his  children  was  beautiful  to 
observe,  and  in  it  was  exemplified  the  truth  that  unselfish  love  sub- 
dues and  transfigures  all  limitations  and  can  conquer  pain  and  death. 


544  THE    DESCENDANTS   OF 

In  all  this  discipline  and  their  successive  conquests  over  pain  and 
disappointment  much  may  be  ascribed  to  a  native  strength  of  reso- 
lution, an  indomitable  energy  of  will,  such  as  make  heroes  of  men 
and  enables  men  to  'suffer  and  be  strong'  by  the  manliness  that  is 
as  iron  in  the  blood.  Dr.  Farnam  had  much  of  these  by  nature,  for 
it  was  manifest  in  his  boyhood,  though  coupled  with  rare  affection- 
ateness,  gentleness  and  generosity.  But  he  had  more  than  these 
natural  qualities  and  more  than  these  were  wanting  to  explain  the 
maturity  of  his  wonderful  patience,  his  calm  self-poise,  his  ever  fresh 
curiosity,  his  unabated  interest  in  old  friends  and  new,  his  minute 
and  loving  care  for  wife  and  children  and  neighbors,  and  the  friends 
of  his  youth,  and  above  all,  the  serene  contemplation  of  approaching 
death  and  the  scenes  that  lie  beyond.  These  experiences  can  only 
be  accounted  for  by  the  Christian  faith  and  hope  which  were  dis- 
tinct and  bright  as  year  after  year  and  month  after  month  recorded 
the  steady  and  decided  progress  of  his  ebbing  life,  and  which  ended 
in  that  perfect  peace  which  was  to  him  the  gentle  dawn  to  the 
bright  morning  of  the  immortal  life. 

The  writer  would  make  no  secret  of  the  fact  that  his  relations  to 
Dr.  Farnam  have  been  most  intimate  for  nearly  thirty  years.  For 
several  of  these  years  he,  Dr.  Farnam,  was  an  inmate  of  his  household^ 
and  has  been  intimately  known  to  him  as  a  boy  and  a  man.  Hi& 
sweetness  of  temper  and  energy  of  action,  his  pluck  and  courage,  liis 
tenacity  and  heroism,  his  capacity  for  sympathy  and  self-sacrifice, 
have  been  familiar  to  his  observation.  These  qualities,  interesting  as 
they  were,  and  some  of  them  remarkable  in  their  combination  in  a 
youth  of  so  much  promise  and  hope,  have  been  softened  and  hallowed 
by  years  of  patient  suffering  and  cheerful  unselfishness.  With  his 
later  history  the  writer  has  been  equally  familiar.  It  has  been  his 
privilege  to  see  him  familiarly  in  the  chamber  and  bed  in  which  he 
has  been  imprisoned  for  years,  and  to  witness  the  patience  and  peace 
and  loving  sympathy  and  energy  that  have  been  there  visibly  ma- 
tured for  another  life.  This  j)athetic  story  is  fitted  to  suggest  the 
thought  that  now  and  then  one  of  our  friends  is  called  to  some 
strange  and  sad  service  of  limitation  and  pain,  in  order  to  inculcate 
manifold  lessons  upon  those  who  look  on  that  we  are  slow  to  learn 
in  the  heyday  of  health  and  success.  They  lead  us  to  remember 
that  even  Christ  pleased  not  Himself.  Perhaps  those  who  are  called 
to  this  service  are,  after  all,  more  blessed  in  the  influence  and  effect 
of  their  living  than  those  who  suffer  less.  They  certainly  leave 
behind  them  the  most  tender  and  loving  memories.

Obituary. — At  a  meeting  of  the  Probate  Assembly  of  Connecti- 
cut at  Norwich,  on  the  12th  of  May,  1886,  the  following  resolutions 
were  passed : 

"  Resolved^  That  we,  the  members  of  the  Probate  Assembly  of 
Connecticut,  since  our  last  meeting  have  heard  with  sincerest  sorrow 
of  the  death  of  the  Hon.  Charles  L.  Whitman,  Probate  Judge  of 
the  District  of  Farmington,  and  deem  it  our  sacred  duty  and  mel- 
ancholy pleasure  to  give  some  expression  of  our  respect  and  regard 
as  a  memento  of  his  worth  as  a  man  and  a  judge. 

Resolved^  That  while  we  mourn  his  loss,  we  are  mindful  of  his 
courteous  bearing,  his  integrity,  his  goodness  and  generosity,  the 
conscientious  performance  of  his  duties,  both  public  and  private, 
his  value  as  a  citizen  and  neighbor,  and  his  great  interest  in  all 
matters  pertaining  to  his  office. 

Resolved^  That  his  untiring  efforts  to  raise  the  standard  of  practice 
in  our  Probate  Courts  and  to  make  this  assembly  the  vehicle  of  that 
elevation,  merit  our  unqualified  gratitude,  and  that  we  will  cherish 
the  memory  of  his  endeavors  and  be  guided  by  his  example  in  these 
laudable  attempts. 

Resolved^  That  we  tender  to  his  afflicted  widow  and  relatives  our 
deepest  sympathy  and  share  with  them  in  their  sorrow  and  severe 
bereavement. 

Resolved^  That  a  copy  of  these  resolutions  be  forwarded  to  Mrs. 
Whitman  at  Farmington,  Ct.,  and  a  copy  placed  upon  the  records 
of  this  assembly." 


548  THE   DESCENDANTS    OF 

Kemarks  of  Judge  "White  of  Hartford  :  "  The  office  of  Judge  of 
Probate  in  our  State  is  a  very  humble  one,  and  yet  it  may  be  safely 
affirmed  that  there  is  none  more  important  or  of  more  consequence 
to  the  people,  nor  any  wherein  one  may  serve  his  fellow-men  or 
earn  more  enduring  honor.     It  is  peculiarly  the   people's  court. 
The  gates  of  its  temples  are  always  open,  and  at  its  bar,  men,  women 
and  children  may  bring  their  cases  and  manage  their  own  interests 
mainly  without  the  aid  of  counsel  skilled  in  the  science  of  law.     It 
is  true  the  judge  must  not  only  be  the  judge  of  the  court  but 
counselor,  arbitrator  and  friend  as  well.     In  cases  bristling  all  over 
with  points  of  controversy,  he  must  set  bounds  to  grasping  selfish- 
ness, protect  the  interests  of  the  weak  and  ignorant,  and  unaided 
by  counsel  in  eliminating  facts  or  citing  authorities  upon  points  of 
law,  thread  his  way  to  find  judgment  which  shall  accord  with  law 
and  as  equal  and  exact  justice  as  between  the  parties.     A  Judge  of 
the  Probate  Court  should,  considering  the  peculiar  duties  he  has  to 
perform,  possess  a  good  knowledge  of  the  law  as  applicable  to  pro- 
bate proceedings,  a  quick  and  intuitive  perception  of  human  char- 
acter and  motives,  inflexible  integrity,  a  good  talent  for  drudgery 
and   good   common   sense.     Twelve    years   ago   Judge   Whitman 
brought  to  the  discharge  of  his  duties  as  Judge  for  the  District  of 
Farmington  all  these  good  qualifications.     He  had  a  judicial  mind 
and  a  love  for  the  duties  of  the  position.     He  was  dignified  and  yet 
exceedingly  courteous  in  liis  address  and  bearing,  possessed  a  fine 
commanding  presence,  and  had  decided  opinions  upon  all  the  politics 
and  other  questions  which  involved  the  interests  of  the  State  or  the 
world.     He  was  a  diligent  student  and  rarely  accepted  an  opinion 
as  conclusive  until  he  had  carefully  examined  for  himseK  the  authori- 
ties bearing  upon  the  question.     He  was  lineally  descended  from  a 
New  England  Pilgrim  stock,  the  immigrant  ancestor  being  John 
Whitman,  who  bought  land  in  Weymouth,  Mass.,  in  1642,  which 
remained  in  the  Whitman  family  until  1806.     He  was  deacon  of 
the  church  at  Weymouth,  where  he  died  in  Nov.,  1692,  at  the  age 
of  ninety  years.     He  also  possessed  certain  judicial  qualities,  for 
he  with  two  other  townsmen,  was  appointed  to  '  end  small  contro- 
versies'  in  Weymouth,  and  reappointed  to  the  same  office.     Rev. 
Zechariah  Whitman,  the  third  son   of   John,  was  born  in  1644, 
graduated  at  Harvard  College  in  1668,  ordained  at  Hull,  Mass.,  in 
16Y0.     Pev.   Samuel  Whitman,   third  son  of  Zechariah,  born  in 
1677,  graduated  at  Harvard  College  in  1696,  taught  a  grammar 
school  in  Salem  in  1699,  ordained  pastor  of  the  First  Congregational 
Church  at  Farmington,  Dec,  1706,  fellow  of  Yale  College  from 


JOHN   WHITMAN    OF   WEYMOUTH.  549 

1Y24:  to  1746,  died  July,  1751.  Solomon  Whitman,  son  of  Samuel, 
bom  April  20,  1710,  died  Sept.,  1803.  He  was  for  nine  years  a 
representative  in  the  General  Assembly  from  Farmington,  and  was 
appointed  Judge  of  Probate  when  the  Farmington  District  was  set 
off  from  Hartford  in  1769,  and  held  court  for  the  last  time,  June  2, 
1784,  when  he  was  succeeded  by  John,  afterwards  Gov.  Treadwell. 
He  was  also  Town  Clerk  and  the  principal  Justice  of  the  Peace  during 
the  most  of  his  life.  Elnathan  Whitman,  third  son  of  Solomon, 
born  March,  1746,  and  died  March,  1813.  William  Whitman, 
eldest  child  of  Elnathan,  born  July  11,  1783,  and  died  Nov.  12, 
1876.  He  was  a  farmer  and  hotel  keeper.  With  good  natural 
abihties,  a  retentive  memory,  and  a  disposition  to  acquire  a  knowl- 
edge of  men  and  things,  he  became  well  known  as  a  just  and  upright 
man,  a  safe  counselor  in  all  business  matters,  a  man  who,  one  of  his 
townsmen  informs  me,  hated  a  mean  thing  heartily.  Charles  Loring 
Whitman  was  his  second  son,  born  May  26,  1827.  He  attended 
school  at  Hingham,  Mass.,  and  at  New  Haven.  In  1842  he  entered 
the  store  of  G.  W.  Warren  &  Co.,  in  Boston,  where  he  remained 
until  he  arrived  at  his  majority.  It  was  during  tliis  period  doubtless 
that  he  acquired  the  habits  of  thorough  accuracy  and  business  honor 
which  so  conspicuously  remained  as  his  habits  during  life.  He  fol- 
lowed general  business  in  trade  and  otherwise  until  1852,  when  he 
returned  to  Farmington  and  there  lived  until  his  death.  From  his 
honorable  ancestry  he  doubtless  inherited  many  of  his  most  promi- 
nent traits  of  character,  but  these  would  have  been  of  little  use  to 
him,  except  for  the  use  he  made  of  them  by  his  constant  effort  to 
fill  his  place  in  the  world  honorably  and  well.  How  successful  he 
was  in  this  his  fellow-townsmen,  his  colleagues  in  the  Senate  of 
Connecticut,  and  we  who  have  had  the  advantage  of  his  counsel,  can 
approvingly  speak.  He  has  left  no  lineal  descendant,  but  he  has 
left  the  example  of  a  just  and  upright  judge,  an  honest  man,  a  good 
neighbor,  husband  and  friend.  I  know  not  any  higher  praise  to 
give  him  than  this,  but  I  could  not  say  less  and  do  justice  to  my 
own  estimate  of  his  character.  I  should  be  glad  to  speak  at  length 
of  his  service  to  the  State  as  a  legislator,  of  his  service  to  his  towns- 
men, to  the  church,  and  his  cheerful  cooperation  in  every  good 
cause  for  the  benefit  of  the  poor  or  the  amelioration  of  the  sorrows 
and  hardships  of  mankind,  but  the  limitation  of  time  in  these  assem- 
blies forbids  and  I  leave  it  to  your  own  recollections  of  the  man  to 
fill  out  this  brief  and  imperfect  sketch." 

Eemarks  of  Judge  S.  T.   Holbrook  of  Norwich :    "  Mr,  Presi- 
dent— These  resolutions   are   not   merely    unmeaning  formalities. 


550  THE   DESCENDANTS   OF 

We  sometimes  think,  when  a  man  dies,-  that  the  utterances  of 
friends  are  somewhat  stilted  and  fulsome.  But  it  would  seem  that 
no  one  who  knew  Judge  Whitman,  even  no  longer  than  my  own 
comparatively  short  acquaintance  with  him,  will  say  that  the  resolu- 
tions now  before  the  assembly,  as  far  as  they  go,  are  not  strictly  true. 
They  were  so  intended.  The  partiality  of  friendship  may  appear 
in  these  resolutions  (which  I  have  drawn  at  the  request  of  Judge 
White)  and  the  great  esteem  I  entertained  for  our  deceased  mem- 
ber be  detected,  in  the  few  remarks  I  desire  to  make  upon  his 
character  as  it  revealed  itself  to  me  after  an  acquaintance  of  about 
two  years — a  short  time  indeed  to  learn  one's  nature — but  sufficiently 
long,  methinks,  to  discover  the  transparent  qualities  of  his  mind  and 
heart.  I  met  him  first  in  our  Probate  Assembly  in  Hartford  in 
1884,  and  was  attracted  by  his  genial  manners  and  his  earnest  interest 
in  the  subjects  discussed.  He  seemed  to  possess  an  unusual  desire 
to  gain  all  possible  knowledge  relating  to  his  office  of  Judge.  1 
think  he  attended  every  meeting  of  this  organization  and  always 
participated  in  the  discussion  of  matters  of  moment.  His  remarks 
were  modestly  uttered  and  clothed  with  great  good  sense.  I  am 
not  surprised  that  the  trustees  of  the  Farmington  Savings  Bank  (of 
which  he  was  a  vice-president)  should  say  of  him  that  '  as  a  Judge  of 
the  Probate  Court  he  was  to  an  unusual  degree  conscientious  and 
efficient.'  That  he  was  ' conscientious '  I  have  no  doubt;  that  he 
endeavored  to  become  more  and  more  •  efficient '  we  all  have  had 
ample  proof.  His  ideal  of  a  Probate  Judge  was  high  and  he  felt 
it  a  duty  as  well  as  a  pleasure  to  assist  and  protect  the  interests  of 
those  whose  natural  guardian  had  been  removed  by  death.  That  the 
people  of  his  district  appreciated  his  ability  is  evinced  by  the  fact 
that  he  was  elected  to  office  a  number  of  times  when  his  party  was 
largely  in  the  minority.  If  one  will  but  turn  the  pages  of  the 
journals  of  the  State  Senate  for  the  years  1878  and  1879  he  will  see 
in  what  esteem  he  was  held  by  that  body.  He  was  one  of  the  can- 
didates for  president  pro  tem.  and  was  chairman  of  several  impor- 
tant committees.  Judge  Whitman  was  with  us  at  our  meeting  at 
the  capitol  at  Hartford  last  February,  and  it  was  there  that  he  had 
the  first  attack  of  the  disease  which  ended  his  life.  He  died  with- 
out descendants.  He  leaves  a  widow  of  whom  he  always  spoke 
with  respect  and  tenderness.  He  was  the  most  devoted  of  hus- 
bands. In  a  touching  and  beautiful  note,  Mrs.  Whitman  says  that 
her  late  husband  and  she  were  always  together,  and  for  the  last 
seventeen  years  of  their  married  life  they  had  been  separated  but  a 
few  hours  at  a  time,  not  even  for  one  night.     Another  lady  o£ 


JOHN   WHITMAN    OF    WEYMOUTH.  551 

Farmiiigton  says  :  '  Mr.  Whitman  had  endeared  himself  by  his 
thoughtful  kindness  and  loving  attentions  to  both  rich  and  poor, 
and  everybody  in  sorrow  and  trouble  found  in  him  a  true  friend,' 
and  this  lady  writes  in  glowing  terms  when  she  speaks  of  him  as  a 
Judge  of  Probate.  I  would  write  upon  the  stone  that  shall  mark 
his  grave  the  words — '  Well  done.'  Who  but  a  Judge  of  Probate  can 
tell  what  these  words  mean  when  applied  to  that  office  ?  Who  bu"^ 
the  Judge  knows  the  constant  mental  and  physical  strain  he  is  daily 
subjected  to,  especially  in  our  larger  districts,  and  the  fact  that  seven 
out  of  eight  who  are  doing  business  in  his  office  are  doing  business 
for  the  first  time,  are  mere  novices  and  rely  entirely  upon  the  Judge 
for  guidance  in  their  every  step  ?  Who  but  the  Judge  knows  that 
more  than  half  of  his  time  is  spent  in  hearing  grievances  with  which 
he  has,  by  virtue  of  his  office,  no  concern  and  in  giving  gratuitous 
advice  which  strictly  should  come  from  a  lawyer  ?  and  how  much 
he  is  relied  upon  by  the  widow  and  orphan  to  render  them  all  assis- 
tance in  his  power  in  all  matters  pertaining  to  their  welfare  and 
comfort?  And  what  is  the  reward?  That  Judge  Whitman  was 
admirably  adapted  to  his  office  I  am  abundantly  assured.  That  he 
filled  the  position  to  the  best  of  his  ability  I  am  equally  assured. 
The  reward  is,  the  consolation  he  must  have  had  in  his  belief  that 
after  his  death  the  people  would  say — 'Well  done.' 

Judge  Whitman  died  on  the  8th  of  March  last  (1886).  He  was 
buried  in  Farmington,  where  he  was  born  and  where  he  spent  the 
most  of  his  life.  May  he  there  sleep  peacefully  thi'ongh  the  long, 
long  night  until  the  morning  breaks  !"

of  the  cause  of  learning ;  the  following  is  taken  from  an 
obituary  notice : 

"Mrs.  Whitman  died  Feb.  1,  1853,  aged  85,  widow  of 
John  P.  Whitman,  who  came  from  Hartford,  Ct.,  in  1795, 
and  was  a  successful  and  active  Christian  until  his  death 
in  1834;  she  was  the  daughter  of  Charles  Seymour  of  W. 
Hartford,  and  was  the  eldest  of  a  family  of  four  sisters  and 
one  brother ;  Mrs.  Whitman  made  a  profession  of  religion 
at  the  age  of  22,  and  was  the  only  young  person  in  the 
church  at  W.  Hartford  at  the  time ;  at  the  time  of  her 
decease  she  had  been  a  member  of  the  church  sixty-two 
years,  and  the  earnest,  active  piety  of  her  youth  and  of 
her  middle  life  had  ripened  '  as  a  shock  of  corn ;'  having 
an  income  above  her  personal  and  family  wants,  she  gave 
with  a  liberal  hand  to  the  needy  and  to  public  objects  of 
charity ;  the  missionary  cause  in  its  various  needs  shared 
largely  in  her  benefactions ;  she  was  a  generous  friend  of 
Williams  College  and  liberal  in  contributions ;  but  the 
charm  of  her  declining  years  was  her  calm,  submissive  and 
joyful  faith,  growing  brighter  as  she  neared  the  eternal 
world ;  when  reminded  that  there   was   '  rest  for  her  in 


656  THE    DESCENDANTS    OF 

heaven,'  she  said — *  I  rest  now,'  and  there  was  meaning  in 
the  expression ;  so  did  she  '  rest  in  the  peace  of  God  that 
passeth  all  understanding '  until  the  blessedness  of  earth 
faded  away  into  the  blessedness  of  heaven  ;"  2  c

he  was  held  in  the  community :  "  He  was  a  faithful  soldier  in  the  good 
fight,  always  at  his  post,  and  ready  for  every  good  word  and  work  ;  he 
was  generous,  wise  to  do  good,  to  help  the  poor  in  a  way  to  make 
them  help  themselves ;  Mr.  Whitman  sympathized  with  every  good 
cause,  took  large  views  of  every  subject  he  was  called  upon  to  con- 
sider, and  was  always  ready  to  do  his  part ;  he  was  a  warm  friend 
of  the  College,  and  always  ready  to  aid  it  in  the  hour  of  emergency 
and  trial ;  he  was  a  cheerful  man ;  afflicted  in  body  he  had 
a  healthy  mind,  always  active  and  always  bright ;  he  was  uniformly 
kind,  and  none  knew  him  but  to  love  him ;  not  only  his  family 
and  relatives,  but  the  town,  the  College  and  the  church  have  all 
lost  one  of  their  best  friends  and  wisest  counselor ;  his  end  was 
peace;"  the  Whitman  homestead  was,  in  1858,  sold  to  Williams 
College  for  the  President's  residence  ;  5  c. 

"  Obituary. — Mrs.  Whitman,  whose  maiden  name  was  Bulkley, 
was  born  in  Granville,  N.  Y.,  in  1806.  Sixty-six  years  ago  she  re- 
moved to  Williamstown,  Mass.,  as  the  wife  of  Seymour  Whitman, 
a  well-known  merchant,  who  conducted  a  business  established  long 
before  by  his  father.  The  old  Whitman  homestead,  a  quaint  relic 
of  the  past,  still  stands  in  the  main  street,  and  is  remembered,  together 
with  the  successive  generations  who  have  occupied  it,  by  all  who 
have  been  connected  with  WilKams  College  or  have  resided  in  the 
town. 

The  Whitmans  were  public-spirited  people,  known  for  their  hos- 
pitality, their  warm  sympathy  with  all  religious  and  educational 
movements,  and  for  their  steadfast  and  liberal  interest  in  the  Col- 
lege. 

Mrs.  Whitman  was  in  harmony  with  the  spirit  of  the  family  she 
entered,  and  not  only  shared  but  enlarged  it.  She  was  remarkable 
for  her  kindness,  her  sound  judgment  and  her  helpfulness.  These 
qualities  drew  around  her  a  large  circle  of  friends,  and  caused  her

aid  and  counsel  to  be  much  sought.  Her  large  heart  and  winning 
manners  rendered  her  home  attractive  both  to  her  family  and  to 
visitors.  The  village  church  was  her  peculiar  care,  and  the  pastor 
always  found  a  warm  welcome  at  her  fireside  and  table.  Though 
suffering  much  from  ill-health,  her  industry  was  unwearied,  and 
her  interest  in  books  and  in  public  affairs  continued  almost  to  the 
last. 

For  many  years  a  Tuesday  evening  prayer  meeting  was  maintained 
at  her  house.  Many  of  the  old  inhabitants  and  graduates  of  the 
College  will  recall  the  cosy  front  room,  with  its  open  fire  on  the 
hearth,  in  which  these  meetings  were  held. 

Her  husband  died  thirty  years  ago,  and  since  that  event  she  has 
spent  much  of  her  time  with  her  children.  The  failure  of  her 
powers  was  gradual.  Her  death  was  in  keeping  with  her  life,  and 
was  a  beautiful  and  convincing  testimony  to  the  nobility  of  the 
objects  of  the  Christian  faith. 

Her  remains  were  interred  in  the  village  cemetery  in  Williams- 
town."

Todd,  at  Pittsfield,  making  brief  visits  to  Newington  and 
occasionally  preaching ;  his  home  was  a  favorite  resort  for

''Obituary. — Died  at  Newington,  Nov.  16,  after  an 
illness  of  five  days,  Mrs.  Lucy  Collins  Brace.  The  pastor's 
wife — for  fifty  years  his  counselor  and  comfort,  and  in 
many  respects  the  life  of  his  ministry — has  suddenly  left 
him  alone.  In  her  grave  he  feels  that  he  has  laid  down 
his  light  and  his  glory.  His  purposes  are  broken  and  he 
is  desolate.  She  was  the  '  crown  to  her  husband '  and  her 
children  and  grandchildren  '  rise  up  and  call  her  blessed.' 
She  had  remarkable  discernment.  She  lived  for  the  good 
of  others.  In  her  family  she  was  self-sacrificing  and 
noble-hearted ;  and  she  walked  up  and  down  among  the 
families  of  the  parish  a  messenger  of  mercy.  Continually 
she  cried  unto  God  for  a  blessing  on  her  husband  and 
children  and  on  the  people.  She  was  associated  in  a  Bible 
class,  and  was  an  earnest  student  of  the  Scriptures.  For 
more  than  thirty  years  she  was  in  a  Ladies'  Association  for 
Missions,  which  her  husband  felt  to  be  the  spring  and  soul 
of  their  work  in  the  kingdom  of  Christ.  When  asked  by 
her  husband — '  Are  you  going  to  leave  me  I  are  you  going 
to  that  Jesus  whom  we  have  loved  and  trusted  so  long  f 
she  replied  by  repeating  the  stanza : 

'  Lord,  when  I  quit  this  earthly  stage. 

Where  shall  I  fly  but  to  Thy  breast? 
For  I  have  sought  no  other  home, 
For  I  have  learned  no  other  rest.'  J.  B.

school  in  New  York  State,  just  over  the  Connecticut  border,  among

the  then  somewhat  uncouth  population  of  Dutchess  County ;  this 
occupation,  varied  with  frequent  trips  home  in  the  winter  and  long 
visits  in  the  summer,  was  continued  until  shortly  after  the  death  of  his 
father  in  Jan.,  1830,  when  he  assumed  the  management  of  the  paternal 
farm ;  Mr.  Morris  had,  however,  determined  to  obtain  a  collegiate 
education,  and  to  that  end  entered  the  school  of  the  Hon.  Hawley  01m- 
stead  at  Wilton,  Ct. ;  in  Aug.,  1833,  after  fourteen  months'  prep- 
aration, he  presented  himseK  as  a  candidate  for  admission  to  the 
freshman  class  of  Yale  College ;  he  graduated  with  the  class  in 
1837,  with  the  rank  of  salutatorian ;  for  the  next  six  years  his  occu- 
pation was  that  of  a  teacher ;  about  the  middle  of  his  senior  year 
at  college,  he  had  been  offered  the  principalship  of  Bacon  Academy 
at  Colchester,  Conn. ;  this  position  he  held  from  Feb.  1,  1837,  until 
the  summer  of  1838,  when  he  resigned  to  accept  a  position  as 
instructor  in  the  Teachers'  Seminary  at  Andover,  Mass. ;  a  short 
time  previous  to  this  removal,  he  had  been  married,  at  Colchester, 
to  Miss  Julia  S.  Avery  of  that  place ;  the  stay  at  Andover  was 
short ;  in  March,  1840,  Mr.  Morris  returned  to  Colchester  and  to 
his  old  post  as  principal  of  Bacon  Academy ;  as  a  teacher  he  com- 
bined sternness  with  those  quahties  which  most  attract  and  inspire 
young  minds ;  a  pupil  during  this  period  writes :  '  How  the  boys 
feared  and  loved  him  ;'  Mr.  Morris  had  not  yet  determined  on  his 
permanent  profession  in  life ;  most  of  his  spare  hours  were  devoted 
to  tlie  pursuit  of  theological  studies  ;  at  Andover  he  had  taken  a  num- 
ber of  lectures  in  theology ;  he  was  licensed  to  preach  by  the  New 
London  County  Association,  in  Sept.,  1843  ;  in  1844  he  removed  to 
J^orwich  Town,  Conn.,  where  he  was  principal  of  the  Norwich 
Town  Academy  for  a  short  time  in  1845 ;  he  had  now  fully 
determined  to  devote  his  life  to  the  ministry ;  in  April,  1846,  he 
was  ordained  pastor  of  the  Congregational  Church  in  No.  Stoning- 
ton.  Conn. ;  he  resigned  in  1852,  and  was  installed  pastor  of  the 
Congregational  Church  in  W.  Hartford,  Ct. ;  his  long  pastorate  in 
W.  Hartford  came  to  an  end  on  his  resignation,  April  27,  1875, 
since  which  time  he  continued  to  reside  in  W.  Hartford  until  his 
death,  July  9,  1885  ;  Mr.  Morris  was  twice  married ;  his  first  wife, 
by  whom  he  had  four  children,  died  in  March,  1854 ;  in  May,  1855, 
he  was  married  to  Emeline  Whitman  of  W.  Hartford ;  by  this 
marriage  he  had  three  children  ;  both  before  and  after  his  last  res- 
ignation he  was  connected  officially  with  several  State  and  County 
religious  and  charitable  institutions ;  from  1867  until  his  death  he 
was  a  member  of  the  Corporation  of  Yale  College ;"  she  resides

youth  resided  at  Conway,  Mass. ;  1834,  removed  to  Penn  Yan, 
N.  Y.,  where  he  entered  upon  the  study  of  law ;  1836,  on  foot  and 
alone,  he  went  to  Richmond,  Ind.,  and  entered  upon  the  practice 
of  his  profession,  at  same  time  editing  a  pajjer  called  the  Jefferso- 
nian;  1843,  became  prosecuting  attorney  for  Sixth  Judicial  Dis- 
trict of  Indiana ;  1845,  was  appointed  by  Grovernor  Whitcomb  to 
the  Supreme  Court  bench,  serving  for  nineteen  consecutive  3'ears ; 
1847,  removed  to  Indianapolis;  1857,  and  for  several  years  there- 
after, was  Professor  of  Law  in  the  Northwestern  Christian  Univer- 
sity ;  1858,  prepared  and  published  the  "  Indiana  Digest ;"  1859, 
published  the  "  Indiana  Practice ;"  both  works  required  great 
research  and  became  standard  authorities ;  1870-72,  was  Professor 
of  Law  at  State  University  ;  1872-76,  was  Judge  of  Superior  Court 
of  Marion  County  ;  1876,  without  action  upon  his  part,  was  returned 
to  the  Supreme  Court,  holding  this  position  at  the  time  of  his 
death,  Dec.  17,  1879 ;  13  c,  five  of  whom  d.  in  infancy  unnamed.

lawyer ;  residence,  Indianapolis ;  she  d.  July  15,  1874 ;  5  c. 

"When  but  a  boy  Mr.  Hord  began  the  study  of  law  in  his 
father's  office ;  1849,  began  the  practice  of  law  at  Greensburg, 
Ind. ;  1852,  was  elected  prosecutor  of  that  judicial  district  and 
served  his  term ;  1862,  was  elected  Attorney- General  and  a  few 
months  later  removed  to  Indianapolis  for  residence  ;  at  the  expira- 
tion of  his  term  he  formed  a  partnership  for  the  practice  of  law 
with  Thos.  A.  Hendricks,  which  was  continued,  except  during  Mr. 
Hendricks'  terms  as  Governor,  until  dissolved  by  death ;  the  firm 
was  changed  at  various  times,  so  that  Mr.  Hord  was  in  point  of 
service  its  oldest  member ;  Mr.  Hord  was  unquestionably  one  of 
the  most  learned  lawyers  of  the  State  or  country  ;  his  legal  knowl- 
edge was  thorough,  not  superficial,  and  the  bulk  of  the  real  work 
of  the  firm  fell  to  him  and  Major  Hendricks ;  he  worked  system- 
atically, being  punctual  and  methodical  in  his  ofiice  habits ;  he 
never  slighted  a  client's  interest,  and  was  never  known  to  under- 
take the  trial  of  a  case  unprepared ;  he  was  an  able  advocate,  and 
possessed  all  the  elements  that  make  up  a  successful  lawyer;  he 
was  earnest,  fearless  and  honest  in  all  his  methods,  and  no  man 
was  ever  held  in  higher  respect  or  esteem  by  fellow-members  of 
the  bar ;  aside  from  the  Attorney-Generalship,  the  deceased  never 
sought  or  held  public  office ;  throughout  Mr.  Hendi'icks'  public

career,  Mr.  Hord  enjoyed  his  confidence  to  a  greater  degree, 
perhaps,  than  any  other  Democrat  in  Indiana ;  he  was,  in  fact,  his 
first  lieutenant,  and  his  time  and  means  were  constantly  at  the 
disposal  of  the  great  statesman ;  he  aided  in  securing  for  Mr. 
Hendricks  the  nominations  for  Vice-President  at  both  St.  Louis 
and  Chicago,  and  always  regarded  these  as  the  two  proudest  acts 
of  his  life ;  Mr.  Hord's  attainments  were  not  confined  to  the  law ; 
he  was  a  scholar  in  the  full  meaning  of  the  term ;  he  was  never 
happier  than  when  at  home  with  his  books ;  his  private  library  was 
one  of  the  largest  and  most  carefully  selected  in  the  State ;  he 
found  his  greatest  pleasure  in  literary  pursuits,  and  was  thoroughly 
posted  on  current  literature  ;  scarcely  a  day  passed  that  he  did  not 
invest  in  a  new  volume  of  some  sort ;  he  was  a  veritable  '  book- 
worm,' and  was  commonly  known  as  '  the  greatest  reader  in  Indian- 
apolis ;'  socially  Mr.  Hord  was  one  of  the  pleasantest  companions ; 
a  cultured  conversationalist,  refined  in  thought  and  polished  in 
manner,  he  was  naturally  sought  after  by  gentlemen ;  his  kindness 
of  heart  and  generosity  were  striking  traits  of  his  character ;  he 
gave  liberally  to  public  charity,  and  was  accustomed  to  contribute 
to  the  relief  of  distress  wherever  he  found  it ;  his  purse-strings 
were  constantly  loosened  to  help  the  deserving ;  he  was  also  ever 
ready  to  lend  a  helping  hand  to  an  ambitious  young  lawyer,  and 
his  friendship  in  every  way  was  of  the  sort  that  counts."

nal : 

"  George  Whitman  Danielson. — George  Whitman  Danielson 
was  born  April  26,  1829,  in  Killingly,  Conn.  He  was  the  son  of 
Jacob  Whitman  and  Lucy  Maria  (Prince)  Danielson.  He  took  the 
name  of  Whitman  from  his  ancestor,  Jacob  Whitman  of  Providence, 
who  was  a  noted  citizen  and  real  estate  owner  on  Westminster  and 
Weybosset  streets,  and  whose  mansion  house  and  lot  bounded  on 
both  those  thoroughfares.  Mr.  Whitman  had  two  slaves  named 
Prime  and  Primus,  to  whom  he  humanely  bequeathed  their  liberty. 
Mr.  Whitman's  daughter  Hannah  was  married  to  the  great-grand- 
father of  the  late  George  W.  Danielson.  The  marriage  took  place 
in  this  city,  and  was  celebrated  in  a  style  becoming  the  station  in 
life  of  the  parties.  The  high  heel.  No.  3,  French  shoes  of  the  bride 
are  still  preserved  by  her  descendants,  as  well  as  the  handsome  wed- 
ding gown  which  she  wore.  After  Jacob  Whitman's  death,  the 
Lyceum  lot  and  the  lot  below  McNeal's  lane  were  set  ofE  to  Hannah 
Danielson' s  heirs,  and  the  Franklin  Lyceum  Building  still  remains 
the  property  of  her  descendants.  It  will  thus  be  seen  that  the  de- 
ceased editor  was  descended  from  good  old  Rhode  Island  stock. 
His  Connecticut  ancestry  was  also  honorable.  The  house  in  which 
he  was  born  was  erected  by  his  ancestor,  James  Danielson,  who,  ac- 
cording to  the  family  tradition,  was  of  Scottish  descent,  and  who 
settled  in  Pomfret,  Conn.,  in  1706,  where  he  made  a  purchase  of 
land  from  the  Indians,  and  subsequently,  in  1707,  bought  from  Ma- 
jor Fitch  a  tract  of  2,000  acres  on  the  Quinebaug  and  Five  Mile 
Rivers.     There  James  Danielson  built  a  home,  and  about  one-half  of 


638 


THE    DESCENDANTS    OF 


the  original  tract  still  remains  in  the  possession  of  his  descendants, 
a  portion  of  it  being  included  in  the  flourishing  village  of  Danielson- 
ville,  named  after  the  Danielson  family.  It  should  be  stated,  also, 
that  James  Danielson,  for  his  services  as  a  volunteer  in  protecting 
the  colony  against  the  Indians,  received  a  share  of  the  land  in  the 
town  of  Yoluntown,  donated  by  the  colony  as  a  bounty  to  the  brave 
men  who  had  taken  part  in  its  defence.  The  Danielsons  continued, 
from  the  time  of  the  settlement  of  their  ancestor  in  Killingly, 
owners  of  the  soil,  respected  and  influential  citizens,  especially  peace- 
ful and  law-abiding,  and  frequently  intrusted  with  those  local  ofiices 
which  in  the  rural  districts  are  still  the  testimony  of  the  confidence 
and  esteem  of  the  community.  George  Whitman  Danielson  attended 
the  district  school  and  received  an  academic  education.  While  at- 
tending school  he  also  worked  on  his  father's  farm,  doing  a  good 
share  of  the  farm  labor  for  a  boy,  while  giving  close  attention  to 
his  lessons.  From  an  early  age  he  took  a  decided  leaning  to  the 
printer's  trade,  and  in  his  fifteenth  year  he  entered  the  office  of  E.  B. 
Carter,  the  village  printer,  at  Danielsonville,  and  there  he  remained 
for  one  year.  During  the  first  six  months  his  compensation  was  $3 
a  month  and  board,  and  during  the  second  six  months  $10  a  month 
and  board.  He  rendered  very  efficient  service,  and  from  being  only 
an  apprentice  when  he  went  into  the  office,  he  soon  proved  himself 
capable  of  conducting  the  business,  much  of  the  burden  of  which 
fell  upon  him.  Windham  County  has  always  been  tributary,  both 
of  its  talented  sons  and  of  the  productions  of  its  favored  soil,  to 
the  city  of  Providence,  and  it  was  natural  that  young  Danielson,  in 
looking  for  a  wider  field  than  the  village  printing  office,  should, 
travel  in  this  direction.  He  came  to  Providence  in  1845,  and  here 
he  worked  as  a  journeyman  printer.  He  also  visited  New  York 
about  this  time  and  set  type  on  one  of  the  morning  papers  there, 
and  notwithstanding  the  temptations  which  surround  printers  on  a 
morning  newspaper,  he  steadily  adhered  to  his  mother's  parting  in- 
junction against  the  use  of  stimulants.  Indeed,  throughout  his 
whole  career  Mr.  Danielson  was  an  example  of  temperance,  and 
but  for  his  excellent  habits  would  not  have  been  able  to  bear  for  so 
many  years  the  strain  of  the  unremitting  labor  which  he  imposed 
upon  himself.  After  a  brief  period  in  New  York,  young  Danielson, 
still  a  youth  but  full  of  ambition  and  energy,  returned  to  Providence. 
Here  he  readily  obtained  employment,  and  while  still  under  20  years 
of  age  he  published  the  Daily  Sentinel,  a  paper  which,  though  of 
brief  existence,  gave  promise  of  the  future.  From  the  first  the 
earnestness  of  the  young  man,  and  his  determination  to  push  for- 


JOHN   "WHITMAN    OF   WEYMOUTH.  639 

ward  to  success,  attracted  attention  and  aroused  the  jealousy  of 
some,  while  enlisting  the  good  will  and  friendly  offices  of  others. 
He  was  for  a  time  editor  of  the  Daily  Transcript,  which  was  con- 
ducted with  an  ability  that  commanded  the  respect  of  older  journals. 
On  the  26th  day  of  July,  1848,  he  became  editor  and  publisher  of 
the  JSfew  England  Arena,  at  W.  Killingly.  The  salutatory  was 
signed  '  G.  Whitman  Danielson,'  and  the  lines  which  headed  the 
paper  were  indicative  of  the  spirit  of  the  man  : 

'  Thy  spirit,  Independence,  let  me  share, 
Lord  of  the  lion  heart  and  eagle  eye  ; 
Thy  steps  I'll  follow  with  my  bosom  bare. 
Nor  heed  the  storm  that  howls  along  the  sky.' 

Some  words  in  the  salutatory  are  worth  repeating,  they  so  plainly 
speak  the  character  of  George  Whitman  Danielson :  '  In  the  first 
place,  we  assume  the  publication  of  the  Arena  for  the  purpose  of 
gaining  an  honest  livelihood,  and  although  we  expect  to  be  obliged 
to  toil  unceasingly  to  accomplish  that  object,  still  we  expect  to 
merit  it  and  mean  to  get  it.  .  .  .  We  sympathize  much  with  the 
sons  of  toil,  with  the  poor,  with  the  oppressed ;  but  we  have  no 
desire  to  stir  up  feelings  of  hostility  and  bitterness  in  the  poor 
toward  those  who  have  been  more  fortunate  in  accumulating  this 
world's  goods.  We  only  want  the  poor  man  to  understand  that  he, 
in  common  with  the  millionaire,  bears  the  impress  of  his  Maker, 
and  that,  as  long  as  he  does  right,  he  is  as  good  as  the  best,  and 
should  so  esteem  himself.  .  .  .  We  do  not  wish  the  Yoltaires  or 
Tom  Paines  in  religion  to  find  anything  on  which  they  can  rely  as 
support  of  their  wild  and  chimerical  dogmas  ;  we  would  rather  they 
should  meet  a  rebuke  in  every  line  we  write.  It  is  true  we  rely  on 
public  patronage  for  support,  but  we  despise  the  idea  of  gaining  it 
at  the  expense  of  what  may  be  considered  sound  principles.  .  .  . 
As  the  cultivation  of  moral  feeling  is  closely  allied  to  the  stability 
of  government  and  the  well-being  of  society,  we  shall  devote  a 
portion  of  our  paper  to  original  and  selected  articles  tending  to 
disseminate  the  mild  principles  of  virtue,  and  diffuse  a  feeling  of 
piety  and  devotion  throughout  the  community.  Our  aim  shall  be 
to  make  a  paper  that  shall  adorn  and  bless  the  family  circle,  and 
on  no  account  shall  anything  of  an  immoral  or  vicious  tendency 
be  allowed  a  place  in  its  columns.'  Such  were  the  editorial  senti- 
ments of  G.  Whitman  Danielson  over  his  own  signature  before  he 
had  reached  the  age  of  manhood.  The  Arena  continued  in  exist- 
ence for  more  than  a  year,  when  George  Whitman  Danielson,  now 
arrived  at  man's  estate,  came  back  to  Providence  to  enter  the  ranks 


640  THE   DESCENDANTS    OF 

of  journalism  where  he  was  already  favorably  known.     In  May, 
1851,  he  occupied  the  position  of  reporter  of  marine  news  for  the 
Daily  Post  of  this  city,  and  continued  his  connection  with  that 
paper  for  several  years,  acting  also  as  foreman  of  the  composing 
room  and  also  as  assistant  editor.     He  frequently  had  charge  of  the 
paper.     He  disj)layed  on  the  Daily  Post  remarkable  industry  and 
journalistic  capacity,  and  thoughtful  men  began  to  look  toward  him 
as  one  who  was  certain  to  make  his  impress  in  journalism  and  in 
the  State.     In  1859,  on  the  lith  of  March,  he  established  the 
Evening  Press,  in  company  w^ith  Albert  R.  Cooke.     The  paper, 
thanks  to  the  able  management  of  Mr.  Danielson,  grew  in  value 
and  in  influence  until  it  had  achieved  a  prominent  and  honorable 
position,  besides  affording  assurance  of  being  largely  profitable  at 
no  distant  date.     In  Sept.,  1862,  Mr.  Danielson  sold  out  to  Mr. 
Cooke  his  interest  in  the  Evening  Press,  and  took  a  few  weeks' 
recreation.     During  this  period  he  visited  the  Ai'my  of  the  Potomac, 
and  wi'ote  home  some  interesting  letters  from  the  front.     On  the 
first  of  Jan.,  1863,  at  the  request  of  Senator  Anthony  and  Mr. 
Joseph   Knowles,   Mr.   Danielson   entered   the   Journal  office  as 
business  manager  and  managing  editor.     He  soon  gave  a  quickening 
impulse  to  the  paper,  which  sent  its  circulation  upward,  and  the 
establishment  of  the  Evening  Bulletin,  Jan,  26,  1863,  brought  the 
news  and  editorial  opinions  of  the  Journal  to  the  doors  of  the 
masses  in  the  form  of  a  cheap  evening  newspaper,  which,  from  a 
circulation  of  a  few  hundreds  to  begin  with,  has  achieved  an  average 
circulation  of  more  than  twenty-two  thousand  daily,  its  circulation, 
combined  with  that  of  the  Joxirnal,  making  a  total,  as  Mr.  Daniel- 
son stated  with  just  pride  a  few  months  ago,  surpassed  by  but  few 
newspapers  in  the  world.     The  profits  of  the  business,   it  need 
hardly  be  said,  increased  proportionately,  and  the  great  establish- 
ment which  he  has  thus  built  up  is  a  more  glorious  monument  than 
any  that  can  be  erected  to  the  memory  of  George  Whitman  Daniel- 
son.    But  all  this  was  not  achieved  without  unceasing  and  vigilant 
effort.     For  a  number  of  years  Mr.  Danielson  came  to  the  Journal 
office  about  ten  or  half -past  ten  in  the  morning,  and  remained  until 
after  the  Evening  Bulletin  went  to  press  about  4  o'clock  in  the 
afternoon.     Then  he  would  go  home  to  dine,  and  return  to  the  office 
about  Y  o'clock  in  the  evening,  remaining  until  from  half-past  2  or 
3  o'clock  in  the  morning.     Within  about  three  years  past  Mr.  Dan- 
ielson has  not  generally  arrived  at  the  office,  in  the  evening,  before 
half-past  7  or  8  o'clock,  leaving  about  2  o'clock  in  the  morning,  but 
there  has  been  no  relaxation  in  the  vigilance  with  which  he  has 


JOHN    WHITMAN    OF   WEYMOUTH.  641 

controlled  every  detail  of  the  establishment,  whose  employes  number 
not  less  than  two  hundred. 

As  an  employer  Mr.  Danielson  was  most  generous  and  consid- 
erate, and  he  attracted  to  himself  the  loyal  devotion  of  all  who 
were  around  him.  He  was  quick  to  respond  to  the  appeal  of  dis- 
tress, and  many  a  dollar  was  sent  by  him  for  the  relief  of  cases  of 
poverty  called  to  his  attention  by  the  reporters ;  but  this  relief  was 
given  in  such  a  way  that  none  knew  but  the  messenger  of  mercy. 
No  man  had  a  warmer  heart  for  the  afflicted,  and  he  had  a  true 
Rhode  Island  sympathy  for  the  down-trodden.  Though  tenacious 
in  his  opinions  and  principles,  he  was  far  from  being  irreconcilable 
to  those  who  had  treated  him  wrongfully.  He  was  a  true  gentleman 
in  his  deportment,  and  would  not  permit  any  one,  however  hostile 
to  him  personally,  to  be  treated  otherwise  than  with  courtesy  while 
under  the  roof  of  the  Journal  office,  and  he  rarely  appeared  to 
display  impatience  even  under  the  most  annoying  and  irritating 
circumstances. 

Mr.  Danielson  took  a  deep  interest  in  the  progress  and  welfare 
of  his  ancestral  city,  and  was  identified  with  many  of  its  business 
enterprises.  He  was  Vice-President  and  director  of  the  Oakland 
Beach  Association,  a  director  of  the  Phenix  ISTational  Bank,  Rich- 
mond Paper  Co.,  also  of  the  Equitable  Mutual  Insurance  Co.  and  of 
the  Rhode  Island  Telephone  and  Electric  Co.,  and  he  held  stock  in 
various  other  coporations.  He  was  also,  for  a  number  of  years, 
President  of  the  New  England  Associated  Press. 

Mr.  Danielson  was  a  charter  member  of  What  Cheer  Lodge  of 
Masons.  He  was  also,  up  to  the  time  of  his  death,  a  member  of 
the  Westfield  Congregational  Church  in  Danielsonville,  which  he 
joined  in  early  youth,  and  had  been  a  generous  contributor  to  Con- 
gregational churches  in  this  city." 

"  Geoege  W.  Danielson. — In  the  feverishness  of  the  wound  of 
deep  grief  which  cannot  now  be  relieved  by  yielding  to  it,  and 
which  makes  the  pressure  of  their  work  upon  the  journalistic  family 
of  George  W.  Danielson,  suddenly  deprived  of  the  calm  and  absolute 
trust  they  felt  in  his  firm  government  and  considerate  kindliness, 
like  that  expressed  in  the  pathetic  words  of  the  old  fisherman  in 
'  The  Antiquary ' — '  Poor  men  maun  to  their  wark  again  though 
their  hearts  are  beating  like  trip-hammers,' — we  are  called  upon  to 
say  something  of  his  life  and  character.  It  will  at  best  be  but  in- 
adequate. The  details  of  the  onerous  and  many  duties  connected 
with  the  publication  of  a  great  newspaper  must  go  on.  The  ship 
41 


642  THE   DESCENDANTS    OF 

must  keep  her  course,  and  the  pilot  next  in  order  must  place  his  un- 
shrinking though  unskillful  hand  upon  the  spokes  of  the  wheel, 
although  they  are  wet  with  the  blood  of  the  commander  stricken 
down  at  the  post  of  duty.  But  it  must  be  left  to  calmer  moments 
and  wider  scope  for  thought  and  recollection  to  give  the  details  of 
the  great  public  service  to  the  State  and  city  and  the  journalistic 
profession  of  George  W.  Danielson.  We  can  now  only  speak  of 
him  more  particularly  as  the  editor  of  the  Journal. 

Mr.  Danielson  became  a  member  of  the  firm  of  Knowles,  Anthony 
&  Danielson,  and  assumed  the  position  of  managing  editor  of  the 
Journal,  on  Jan.  1,  1863,  shortly  afterward  succeeding  Prof.  James 
B.  Angell,  who  resigned  to  accept  the  position  of  President  of 
Michigan  University,  as  editor-in-cliief .  His  training  had  been  that 
of  a  thoroughly  practical  journalist  in  the  wide  scope  of  education 
in  public  affairs  which  the  profession  affords,  and  the  intimate  knowl- 
edge of  detail  which  is  necessary  to  successful  management.  He 
had  early  been  attracted  to  the  profession  and  had  served  a  boyish 
apprenticeship  in  the  office  of  the  newspaper  of  the  village  of  Dan- 
ielsonville,  Conn.,  the  place  of  his  birth.  So  early  was  his  ability 
manifest  that  he  became  its  editor  when  a  mere  youth  and  conducted 
it  with  remarkable  ability.  A  wider  field  for  his  powers  soon  at- 
tracted him,  and  in  connection  and  control  of  newspapers  in  this 
city  he  had  served  a  thorough  apprenticeship  in  every  detail  of  his 
profession  before  taking  charge  of  the  Journal.  There  was  nothing 
connected  with  the  production  of  a  newspaper,  in  every  position, 
from  the  highest  to  the  lowest,  which  he  had  not  done  and  could 
not  do  well,  and  every  department  and  detail  was  under  an  ex- 
perienced eye  and  a  master  hand.  He  loved  the  work  so  that  he 
could  hardly  abandon  it  to  those  who  were  necessarily  less  perfect 
in  skill,  and  as  the  pressure  of  labor  and  supervision  increased  with 
the  growth  of  the  newspaper,  he  assumed  it  with  the  fatal  results  of 
the  final  collapse  of  the  powerful  brain  and  strong  constitution.  It 
has  been  generally  known  that  he  was  most  assiduous  in  his  at- 
tendance at  the  office,  seldom  being  absent  from  it  for  many  years 
except  during  the  hours  devoted  to  meals  and  sleep,  but  only  those 
familiar  with  its  interior  management  could  be  aware  of  the  enor- 
mous amount  of  labor  displayed  in  the  detail  of  every  department 
and  the  comprehensive  supervision  of  the  whole.  It  is  only  a  won- 
der that  the  burden  on  heart  and  hand  was  borne  so  long.  His 
happy  marriage  of  a  few  years  ago,  and  the  pleasures  of  domestic 
life  which  he  enjoyed  with  deep  and  keen  feeling,  were  only  par- 
tially able  to  win  him  to  a  modification  of  labor,  and  he  apparently 


JOHN   WHITMAN    OF    WEYMOUTH.  643 

worked  the  harder  to  compensate  for  the  hours  devoted  to  affection. 
It  was  only  three  days  before  the  fatal  seizure  that  a  perception  of 
growing  weakness  in  sight  compelled  him  to  abandon  a  portion  of 
his  editorial  control,  but  to  the  last  hour,  before  his  nerveless  hand 
dropped  by  his  side,  his  was  the  absolute  authority  and  guidance. 

The  influence  not  only  of  his  professional  skill  and  industry,  but 
of  his  strong  mind  and  intelligent  public  spirit,  were  soon  felt  in 
the  conduct  of  the  Journal.     It  not  only  grew  with  the  times  and 
was  abreast  with  the  general  progress  of  the  city  and  State,  but  it 
was  in  advance  of  them  so  far  as  its  own  condition  was  concerned, 
and  aided  and  led  them  by  its  vigorous  spirit  and  earnest  and  intel- 
ligent zeal  in  every  matter  of  public  welfare.     The  Journal  had 
long  been  one  of  the  institutions  of  the  State,  and  under  the  man- 
agement of  Mr.  Danielson  it  more  than  maintained  the  influence 
which  had  grown  so  great  under  the  immediate  conduct  of  Senator 
Anthony,  from  which  the  latter's  public  duties  had  called  him.     A 
comparison  of  the  size  and  contents  of  the  Journal  at  the  time  at 
which  it  was  taken  charge  of  by  Mr.  Danielson,  and  the  present 
eight-page  sheet  containing  greatly  more  news  than  any  newspaper 
published  in  New  England,  and  the  various  editions  of  the  Bulletin 
which  was  particularly  his  creation,  will  show  how  great  the  progress 
that  was  due  to  his  ability  and  energy.     It  would  require  pages  of 
detail  to  indicate  the  improvements  made  under  his  direction,  and 
he  was  always  foremost  to  see  and  to  utilize  the  inventions  and  pos- 
sibilities for  the  enhancement  of  journalistic  enterprise,  both  in  his 
capacity  as  editor  of  the  Journal  and  in  connection  with  the  New 
England  Associated  Press,  of  which  he  was  President.     But  this 
is  but  the  smallest  part  of  the  tribute  due  to  Mr.  Danielson  as  an 
editor.     The  vigor  and  strength  of  his  opinion,  his  sound  judgment, 
his  wide  knowledge  of  public  affairs,  and  his  zealous  interest  and 
devotion  to  the  welfare  of  the  city  and  State,  dominated  its  columns 
and  gave  the  force  and  influence  which  it  possessed.     He  was  a 
power  in  the  State  for  his  force  of  ability  and  character,  but  it  was 
never  used  for  any  selfish  ambitions.     He  never  would  accept  any 
office  or  honor  of  a  public  kind  whatever,  and  his  zeal  and  influence 
were  wholly  and  unselfishly  devoted  to  the  welfare  of  the  Rej)ubli- 
can  party,  which  he  believed  to  represent  the  highest  principles  and 
wisest  policy  in  nation  and  State.     He  was  firm  in  his  political  par- 
tisanship and  friendships,  and  outspoken  in  his  political  opposition 
and  antagonisms,  but  not  beyond  a  worthy  and  earnest  zeal,  and  no 
man  was  less  likely  to  pursue  a  beaten  opponent  or  cherish  animosity 
which  was  not  deserved.     His  style  of  editorial  writing  was  vigorous

and  trenchant,  and  on  the  vital  occasions  and  to  the  extent  which 
his  multifarious  duties  enabled  him  to  devote  himself  to  it,  his  mark 
was  always  felt  and  recognized. 

Of  his  personal  relations  to  his  subordinates  and  employes,  his 
newspaper  family,  for  such  it  was  in  the  ties  of  affection  and  com- 
mand, it  is  harder  to  speak,  as  the  overpowering  wound  for  his  loss 
rankles  in  the  sensibilities.  His  control  was  firm  but  always  most 
kindly  and  considerate.  He  was  not  effusive  in  manner,  but  most 
thoughtful  and  compassionate  on  all  occasions  demanding  sympathy 
or  assistance.  His  acts  of  personal  generosity,  which  were  always 
accompanied  by  an  injunction  to  secrecy,  were  many  and  thoughtful 
and  any  occasion  of  misfortune  found  in  hun  the  kindest  and  most 
effectual  sympathy.  He  was  thoroughly  and  personally  interested 
in  the  welfare  of  all  his  employes,  and  ready  to  take  upon  himself 
their  labors  to  spare  their  health  or  afford  them  the  opportunity  for 
that  recreation  which  he  never  took  himself.  Somewhat  slow  to 
give  his  confidence,  it  was  absolute  when  given,  and  could  not  be 
forfeited  except  by  the  most  absolute  and  persistent  misconduct  or 
failure.  It  might  have  been  said  that  he  was  slow  to  take  persons 
into  his  employment  because  he  was  so  reluctant  to  discharge  them, 
and  he  defended  his  employes  with  something  of  the  spirit  of  a 
commander  his  soldiers.  All  these  thoughts  and  sensations  come 
upon  us  at  the  thought  that  the  familiar  face  and  form,  and  the 
always  present  influence  which  was  the  vitalizing  spirit  of  the 
Joiimal,  will  be  seen  and  felt  no  more,  and  words  become  inadequate 
and  impossible."

d.  Oct.  21,1827  ;  during  the  war  of  the  Revolution  he  had 
a  great  desire  to  become  a  soldier ;  meeting  with  strong 
opposition  from  his  father,  when  only  fifteen  years  of  age  he 
ran  away  from  home,  going  to  Newport ;  here  he  attracted 
the  attention  of  a  Frenchman,  a  watch-maker,  who  resided 
in  that  city  with  two  maiden  sisters ;  they  heard  his  story, 
and  becoming  interested  in  the  handsome  boy,  wrote  to  his 
father  advising  him  to  let  his  son  remain  with  them ;  this 
he  did,  and  young  Jacob  remained  with  these  kind  friends 
long  enough  to  learn  the  trade  of  watch-making,  and  at 
the  same  time  acquired  command  of  the  French  language ; 
in  consequence  of  the  facility  with  which  he  spoke  French, 
he  was  appointed  by  the  town  to  communicate  with  the 
French  refugees  who  came  to  this  country  in  1793,  and 
many  of  whom  settled  in  Rhode  Island  ;  after  his  marriage 
he  engaged  in  the  West  India  trade,  owning  and  chartering 
many  vessels ;  was  also  a  noted  and  popular  auctioneer ; 
about  1804  he  erected,  on  the  site  of  his  father's  homestead, 
"  Whitman's  Block,"  at  the  Turk's  Head,  junction  of  Wey- 
bosset  and  Westminster  streets ;  this  was  then  the  largest 
brick  building  in  Providence  (part  of  this  building  is  still 
standing  and  in  use)  ;  he  became  involved  in  the  disasters 
at  the  close  of  the  war  of  1812,  and  owing  to  his  severe 
losses  retired  from  active  business ;  he  retired  to  his  farm 
in  the  western  portion  of  the  city,  and  occupied  himself 
with  its  care  till  his  death,  which  took  place,  Aug.  27, 
1827;  his  widow  survived  him  but  a  few  months;  13  c.

community ;  the  following  is  taken  from  a  notice  pub- 
lished at  the  time  of  his  death,  which  occurred,  Feb.  27, 
1835: 

"  For  a  period  of  about  twenty-one  years  he  belonged 
to  the  Nictaux  Church ;  frequently,  after  toiling"  hard 
through  the  week,  he  had  walked  to  Nictaux,  a  distance  of 
twelve  miles,  heard  two  sermons  and  returned  home  the 
same  evening ;  although  not  regularly  inducted  into  the 
pastoral  office,  yet  to  some  extent,  it  may  be  said,  he  per- 
formed the  work  of  a  pastor ;  there  were  some  particular 
traits  in  his  character  which  endeared  him  to  all  who  knew 
him ;  he  was  given  to  hospitality ;  it  was  no  uncommon 
occurrence  for  twenty  or  thirty  to  lodge  at  his  friendly 
dwelling  at  the  same  time ;  his  house  was  a  veritable 
home  to  the  ministers  of  the  Gospel ;  he  was  remarkable 
for  his  humility  ;  he  was  a  peace-maker ;  in  a  word,  he  was 
a  consistent  Christian ;  he  expired  without  a  struggle,  in 
the  arms  of  everlasting  love ;"  8  c.

settled  on  what  was  termed,  in  the  grant,  as  the  second 
division  of  the  township  of  Annapolis ;  his  farm  extended 
from  the  west  side  of  the  Lawrencetown  lane  to  the  church 
lot,  so-called,  running  five  miles  south,  containing  about 
3,000  acres ;  it  is  said  that  in  order  to  amicably  adjust  his 
father's  estate,  he  took  this  tract,  then  considered  almost 
worthless,  and  that  when  the  title  was  passed,  he  offered 
to  sell  the  entire  plot  for  "  a  thousand  hemlock  boards,  a 
pair  of  pumps  and  a  felt  hat,"  but  found  no  bidder ;  he 
settled  down  on  this  unattractive  tract  and  by  his  industry 
and  energy  soon  rendered  himself  independent ;  he  had 
a  tannery  just  below  the  road,  on  the  Whitman  Brook, 
said  to  have  been  the  most  complete  establishment  in  the 


JOHN   WHITMAN    OF   WEYMOUTH.  683 

county  ;  this  was  continued  by  his  son  Oldham  ;  he  engaged 
in  trading  and  dealing  in  land ;  he  was  highly  esteemed 
in  the  community  and  was  once  elected  representative 
to  the  provincial  assembly,  but  declined  to  serve  a  second 
term ;  was  said  to  be  a  very  corpulent  man,  weighing  at 
his  death  over  300  pounds  ;  there  is  a  family  tradition  that 
at  his  funeral  it  was  found  necessary  to  take  out  the 
window  frame  in  order  to  get  the  coffin  out  of  the  house ; 
he  d.  Jan.  15,  1829,  and  was  buried  in  the  Whitman 
burying-ground ;  of  him  it  is  said  that  he  appointed  100 
executors  to  his  estate,  the  explanation  being  that  Judge 
Ritchie  of  Annapolis  was  one,  his  Avife  and  son  Jacob  the 
others — being  two  ciphers ;  this  proved  only  too  true,  as 
in  the  end  the  Judge  became  possessed  of  a  greater  portion 
of  the  estate ;  12  c,  all  but  one  of  whom  married  and  left

Roach  of  Rosette,  daughter  of  Benjamin  Farin  and  widow 
of  James  Roach,  b.  Dec.  8,  1778 ;  he  settled  on  the  home- 
stead and  was  a  very  respectable  farmer ;  he  also  carried 
on  the  business  of  tanner  and  shoemaker ;  he  left  a  large 
estate,  and  had  the  satisfaction  of  seeing  most  of  his  children 
settled  and  ntarried  before  his  death ;  he  is  said  to  have 
had  a  habit  of  laughing  when  he  became  angry,  and  those 
well  acquainted  with  him  knew  there  was  a  storm  brewing 
when  they  saw  him  laugh ;  his  wife  was  noted  for  her 
kindness  and  hospitality,  especially  to  the  poor;  a  wag 
once  said  that  he  did  not  believe  "  Aunt  Nancy  "  would 
get  to  heaven,  because  she  had  saved  the  lives  of  a  poor 
family,  who  were  not  considered  a  great  benefit  to  the 
community;  he  d.  about  1848;  his  widow  survived  him 
a  few  years ;  10  c.

10074.    VI.  Edward^  b.  ;  m.  about  1808,  Eliza- 

beth Tileston,  daughter  of  CoL  Christopher  Prince ;  he 
settled  at  Lawrencetown  on  the  old  Prince  farm  and  built 
the  Red  House  on  this  property ;  at  one  time  owned  much 
landed  property  and  was  a  smart  and  enterprising  mer- 
chant ;  a  portion  of  his  wife's  estate  he  sold  her  uncle  to 
obtain  money  to  put  in  a  vessel ;  he  later  built  a  vessel  at 
the  Lawrencetown  Bridge  in  company  with  his  brother-in- 
law,  C.  K.  Prince,  and  sailed  in  her  as  captain,  leaving  An- 
napolis, Dec.  31,  1817,  bound  for  Antigua,  but  was  never 
heard  from ;  it  is  supposed  that  the  crew  mutinied,  and  this 
idea  grained  some  confirmation  from  the  execution  at  Balti- 
more,  some  years  afterwards,  of  a  Swede  named  Peterson, 
who  was  believed  to  be  the  sailing-master  under  Capt. 
Whitman ;  this  man,  before  his  death,  confessed  to  having 
destroyed  several  vessels  and  crews ;  after  the  death  of 
Capt.  Whitman  his  widow,  with  her  four  children  and 
about  to  become  a  mother,  moved  back  to  Lawrencetown, 
the  family  having  resided  in  Annapolis  for  the  preceding 
year  or  two  during  the  building  of  the  vessels ;  she  found 
the  property  heavily  mortgaged  and  her  affairs  in  great 
confusion,  but  by  great  industry  and  energy,  aided  by  her 
son  William  C,  she  contrived  to  extricate  herself  from  her 
financial  troubles  and  bring  up  her  children  in  a  fitting 
manner ;  the  date  of  her  death  is  unknown ;  5  c.    "

Jan.  25,  1884;  he  d.  July  2,  1881,  aged  72;  at  the  time  of  his 
father's  death  he  was  a  mere  boy,  but  with  characteristic  energy  he 
devoted  himself  to  the  assistance  of  his  mother  and  the  family ; 
having  received  a  small  sum  from  William  Cagney,  for  whom  he 
was  named,  he  purchased  a  heifer,  and  thus  supplied  the  family

with  milk  and  butter ;  he  learned  the  trade  of  shoemaker,  and 
when  he  became  older  occasionally  taught  school ;  at  one  time 
resided  in  New  Brunswick  engaged  in  peddhng ;  here  he  met  his 
wife,  and  after  his  marriage  returned  home  and  settled  on  his  father's 
farm,  which  by  his  industry  had  been  freed  from  debt ;  from  the 
time  of  his  return  home  till  his  death  he  took  an  active  interest  in 
politics,  allying  himself  with  the  Liberals ;  he  was  several  times 
nominated  as  a  liberal  candidate  for  the  county  against  Judge  J. 
W.  Johnston,  then  the  leader  of  the  Conservatives,  and  though 
never  successful,  his  defeat  was  by  such  small  majorities  as  to  be 
very  flattering  to  his  iniiuence  and  abilities  as  a  speaker ;  184:8,  he 
was  appointed  a  Justice  of  the  Peace,  and  Oct.  25,  1861,  was  called 
to  the  Legislative  Council  of  Nova  Scotia,  a  position  he  retained 
till  his  death ;  "  although  not  a  brilliant  speaker,  his  remarks  were 
models  of  clearness  and  common  sense,  and  he  was  ever  ready  to 
uphold  the  right  and  denounce  the  wrong,  so  that  it  may  be  said  of 
him  through  his  political  career,  that  his  course  was  marked  with  con- 
sistent firmness  for  the  welfare  of  his  country  ;  friend  and  foe  found 
in  him  an  unflinching  advocate  of  the  right,  whom  no  consideration 
could  move ;  his  ambition  was  in  all  tilings  to  be  a  true  man  ;"  12  c.

the  early  death  of  the  father  and  their  comparatively  lim-

Abraham  was  of  an  active  and  energetic  disposition,  and 
at  an  early  age  started  out  to  make  his  own  living ;  he 
went  first  to  Halifax,  N.  S.,  and  then  to  Liverpool,  N.  S., 
and  finally  to  Chester,  N.  S.,  where  he  settled  down  for 
some  years;  here  he  m.  March  1,  1793,  Hannah  Webber,

ing  dull,  he  looked  about  for  a  new  field ;  in  his  trading 
and  lumbering  voyages  he  had  often  passed  through  the 
Gut  of  Canso,  and  had  been  struck  with  the  facilities  of  the 
place  for  a  trade  such  as  he  felt  he  would  like  to  engage 
in;  about  1810  he  moved  to  Canso  and  took  up  large 
grants  of  land,  and  built  for  himself  a  house  and  store, 
living  here  during  the  summer  and  at  Chester  during  the 
winter;  his  business  consisted  in  fitting  out  fishing  vessels 
and  selling  the  cargoes  brought  home  from  the  Banks ; 
the  war  of  1812,  with  its  attendant  privateers,  rendered 
communication  extremely  dangerous  ;  he  therefore  decided 
to  live  permanently  at  Canso,  and  in  the  month  of  De- 
cember, 1812,  after  navigation  had  closed,  he  moved  his 
family  to  what  was  then  a  barren  and  sparsely  inhabited 
country ;  he  built  up  a  large  business,  and  was  the  leading 
man  in  the  community ;  the  life  was  almost  patriarchal, 
and  his  house  was  ever  open  to  both  friend  and  stranger, 
who  always  found  a  hearty  welcome  and  a  seat  at  the 
table  or  by  the  fireside;  he  d.  March  24,  1854,  at  the

great  assistance  to  his  father  ;  a  young  man  of  great  promise 
and  exceedingly  bright  and  intelligent ;  he  was  drowned  in 
the  Salmon  River,  April  19,  1814,  in  his  twentieth  year; 
it  is  said  that  his  mother  never  fully  recovered  from  this 
great  blow  to  her  hopes  and  ambitions.

tion and  all  the  requisites  for  a  sea  captain ;  at  an  early 
age  he  was  appointed  master  of  one  of  his  father's  vessels,

concluded  to  leave  the  sea  and  settle  down  at  Canso, 
when  he  was  lost  while  bringing  his  vessel  home  from 
Newfoundland;  he  left  St.  John,  Dec.  15,  1831,  and  was 
probably  lost  in  a  heavy  gale  which  occurred  Dec.  17,  as 
he  was  never  heard  of;  he  was  noted  for  his  great  per- 
severance and  courage  ;   3  c.

'' A  Remarkable  Family  Gathering. — On  the  17tli  of 
July,  1887,  one  of  the  most  remarkable  gatherings  occur- 
red, which  probably  ever  took  place  in  the  Dominion  of 
Canada,  at  the  home  of  Henry  A.  Bears,  Murray  River, 
Prince  Edward  Island.  The  mother,  Mrs.  Dorcas  Bears, 
the  eldest  daughter  of  the  late  Abraham  Whitman  of  Canso, 
N.  S.,  now  aged  87  and  one-half  years,  still  enjoying  all 
her  faculties  and  in  good  health,  was  favored  with  the 
gathering  of  all  her  family  of  13  children,  who  met  for  the 
first  time,  to  greet  her,  as  an  unbroken  family,  except  the 
father,  who  died  some  fourteen  years  ago,  aged  77  years. 
The  first  place  where  all  met  was  in  the  Temperance  Hall 
to  engage  in  the  worship  of  God  together.  The  Rev.  Mr. 
Phinney  preached  from  Genesis  vii,  1 :   '  Come  thou  and 


812  THE    DESCENDANTS    OF 

all  thy  house  into  the  ark.'  After  service  the  whole  family 
repaired  to  the  homestead  and  took  tea  together ;  seated, 
with  the  mother  at  the  head  of  the  table,  the  first-born  on 
her  right  hand  and  the  rest  in  the  order  in  which  they  were 
born,  bringing  the  youngest  on  the  mother's  left.  The 
evening  was  spent  in  social  conversation  and  singing.  On 
Monday  morning  (the  18th)  a  picture  of  the  family  group 
was  taken.  The  names  and  ages  of  the  family  are  as  fol- 
lows: The  mother,  Dorcas  Bears,  aged  87  years  6  months ; 
James  W.  Bears,  67  years  8  months ;  Sarah  A.  Cook,  66 
years  3  months ;  Dorcas  L.  Grant,  64  years  9  months ; 
Abraham  W.  Bears,  63  years ;  Mercy  C.  Horton,  61  years 
8  months ;  Isaac  A.  Bears,  59  years  9  months ;  David  A. 
Bears,  57  years  3  months ;  Rebecca  E.  Cook,  55  years  6 
months ;  Hannah  E.  Cuddy,  54  years ;  John  F.  Bears,  51 
years  8  months  ;  Henrietta  J.  Brehaut,  48  years  10  months  ; 
Henry  A.  Bears,  45  years  6  months ;  George  W.  Bears, 
43  years  6  months — making  a  total  of  826  years  10  months. 
The  grandchildren  now  number  65  living  and  28  dead; 
the  great-grandchildren  are  73  living  and  4  dead.  There 
were  present  also,  at  the  gathering,  a  brother  and  sister  of

Abigail  Wood  of  Stow,  b.  March  25,  1750,  and  soon  after 
removed  to  Westminster,  a  new  settlement  in  the  dense 
forest  of  Western  Massachusetts  ;  here,  with  characteristic 
energy,  he  set  himself  to  the  task  of  clearing  the  woods 
and  building  himself  a  home  ;  the  site  of  his  first  house,  a 
log  cabin,  is  still  remembered  by  his  descendants ;  an 
enterprising,  upright  and  honorable  man,  and  a  public- 
spirited  citizen,  he  soon  made  his  mark  in  this  new  home ; 
by  thrift  and  prudence  he  acquired  a  competence,  and  in 
1798  stood  third  on  the  list  of  tax-payers  and  landed  pro- 
prietors of  the  town ;  he  constructed  many  houses,  three 
of  which  are  still  standing,  one  having  been  used  as  a 
hotel ;  he  gave  his  name  to  "  Whitman's  Village,"  a  set- 
tlement on  the  edge  of  the  town ;  in  personal  appearance 
he  was  of  medium  height,  but  with  a  bearing  that  betokened 
great  energy ;  the  following  incident  is  related,  indicating 
his  fortitude  and  coolness  under  trying  circumstances : 
Some  seven  or  eight  years  before  his  death,  while  assisting 
a  neighbor  in  moving  a  building,  he  was  drawn  under  the 
rollers,  and  his  leg  completely  crushed  to  the  thigh ;  there 
was  an  immediate  panic  among  the  men,  no  one  knowing 
what  to  do ;  but  Mr.  Whitman,  in  spite  of  his  suffering, 
retained  his  presence  of  mind,  and  planned  and  directed 
ways  and  means  for  the  difficult  feat  of  extricating  himself; 
his  physicians  insisted  that  the  leg  must  be  amputated,  but 
to  this  suggestion  he  gave  an  absolute  refusal,  and  though 
very  lame,  and  compelled  to  use  crutches  the  rest  of  his 
days,  he  recovered  his  accustomed  health ;  he  d.  Aug.  14,

(Gammon)  Standisli,  b.  Sumner,  Me.,  Jan.  30,  1832 ;  a  direct  de- 
scendant of  Miles  Standish;  "in  early  boyhood  he  was  constantly 
occupied  on  his  father's  farm  in  Anson,  Me.,  getting  from  eight  to 
twelve  weeks'  schooling  in  the  winter,  never  attending  school  in 
summer  any  after  nine  years  of  age ;  his  father  dying  when  the 
Doctor  was  only  ten  years  of  age,  it  was  absolutely  necessary  for 
his  mother  to  have  the  benefit  of  his  labor  on  the  farm,  to  help 
maintain  a  family  of  nine  children,  the  Doctor  being  the  eldest  son  ; 
at  sixteen  years  of  age  it  was  thought  best  he  should  learn  the  car- 
penter's trade,  he  having  a  decided  preference  for  that  occupation  ; 
he  continued  at  this  work  in  summer  till  twenty  years  of  age,  when 
he  decided  to  obtain  a  liberal  education  ;  he  commenced  his  studies 
at  Waterville  Academy  under  the  instruction  of  Prof.  James  H. 
Hanson,  and  entered  Colby  University  (then  Waterville  College)  in 
the  class  of  1857;  by  incessant  application  to  study  and  teaching 
during  vacations,  his  health  broke  down  during  his  second  year  in 
college,  causing  him  to  abandon  his  contemplated  course  of  study ; 
in  1856  he  decided  to  make  the  practice  of  medicine  his  profession 
for  life,  and  commenced  the  study  of  it  with  Dr.  Sumner  Gould  of 
Madison,  Me. ;  he  was  graduated  in  1859  at  the  Maine  Medical 
School,  after  taking  two  full  courses  of  lectures  at  that  school,  and 
one  full  course  at  the  University  of  New  York ;  he  was  a  private 
pupil  of  the  late  lamented  Prof.  J.  Conant  of  N.  Y.  City,  between 
whom  there  existed  a  very  intimate  acquaintance;  in  Aug.,  1861, 
Dr.  Houghton  was  appointed  assistant  surgeon  to  the  8th  Pegiment 
Me.  Yols.,  and  was  with  the  regiment  constantly  till  May,  1862, 
when  he  came  north  on  furlough  for  his  health,  chronic  diarrhoea 
claiming  him  for  one  of  its  victims ;  health  not  improving  any,  he 
was  obliged  to  resign,  June  16,  1862  ;  in  1863,  on  the  second  day's 
fight  of  the  battle  of  Gettysburg,  he  volunteered  to  go  and  assist 
the  overworked  and  exhausted  medical  forces  of  that  memorable 
battle ;  at  Baltimore  he  was  asked  to  go  to  the  20th  Maine  that  was 
then  without  any  medical  or  surgical  assistance  whatever;  he 
remained  with  the  20th  Maine  till  it  went  into  quarters  near  White 
Sulphur  Springs,  Ya. ;  in  1869  he  went  to  San  Francisco,  Cal.,  for 
his  health,  he  never  having  recovered  from  the  disease  contracted 
while  in  the  army ;  after  remaining  in  San  Francisco  nearly  a  year, 
he  went  to  Washington  Territory,  first  to  Port  Gamble,  then  to 
Goldendale;  in  1879  he  was  appointed  Superintendent  of  Public 
Instruction  for  Washington  Territory,  which  office  he  filled  for  two 
years ;  was  a  member  of  the  Goldendale  city  council  three  terms ; 
1888,  removed  to  Seattle,  where  he  now  resides ;"  4  c.

was  noted  for  his  great  strength  and  skill  as  a  wrestler,  a 
sport  at  that  time  very  popular  among  the  young  men,  and 
was  for  a  long  time  champion  of  the  community  until  he 
broke  a  leg  in  a  match ;  was  also  noted  for  his  skill  with 


JOHN    WHITMAN    OF   WEYMOUTH.  869 

the  rifle,  and,  even  when  well  advanced  in  years,  was  ready 
to  wager  that  he  could  shoot  a  dipper  off  a  man's  head  at 
thirty  paces,   and  at  turkey  matches  he  always  won  the 
larger  share  of  prizes ;  a  man  who,  his  sons  said,  could 
never  understand  what  the  sensation  of  fear  was  ;  naturally 
restless,  he  often  left  his  home,  even  after  his  marriage, 
in  search  of  adventure;  in  1813  he  went  to  Tennessee  to 
visit  some  friends  and  while  there  engaged  in  flat-boating ; 
upon  one  of  his  trips  down  the  Mississippi,  it  so  happened 
that  he  arrived  near  New  Orleans  just  as  Gen.   Jackson 
was  preparing  for  the  defence  of  that  cit}^ ;   an  orderly 
seized  the  cotton  for  the  fortifications,  and  ordered  all  the 
men,  except  the  captain,  to  report  for  duty,  but  one  of  the 
men  being  faint-hearted.  Col.  Whitman  left  him  in  charge 
of  the  boat  and  took  his  place  in  the  ranks ;  it  is  but  natu- 
ral to  suppose  that  he  did  good  service  in  the  battle  which 
soon  took  place,  and  that  his  rifle  was  by  no  means  one 
of  the  least  effective ;  after  the  fight  he  was  detailed  to 
take  care  of  the  wounded ;  he  remained  with  the  army  a 
few  weeks  and  then  returned  to  his  home ;  he  was  early 
settled  at  Lincoln,  Mass.,  and  there  he  ended  his  days ;  as 
may  be  presumed,  from  his  fondness  for  a  wild,  reckless 
life  as  a  young  man,  Mr.  Whitman  had  but  little  education, 
though  it  is  said  that  his  letters  were  always  written  in 
verse,  but  nature  had  endowed  him  with  a  fund  of  hard 
common  sense  ;  during  the  last  years  of  his  life  he  was  the 
universal  referee  in  all  disputes  among  his  neighbors,  and 
it  is  reported  that  his  opinion  had  greater  weight  than  that 
of  the  best  educated  lawyers  of  the  community ;  he  was 
Colonel  of  the  militia  and  always  interested  in  military 
matters  ;  his  wife  was  a  woman  of  strong  religious  feeling 
and  a  regular  attendant  at  church,  while  her  husband  was 
scarcely  ever  known  to  enter  one ;  one   Sabbath,  it  being 
communion  day,  to  the  surprise  of  every  one,  even  his 
wife,  he   appeared  before  the  congregation,   and  after  a 
profession    of  his   beliefs,    applied   for   admission    to    the

church ;  after  a  brief  consideration  of  his  request,  he  was 
admitted  to  church  fellowship,  and  for  the  remainder  of 
his  days  was  constant  in  the  observance  of  his  religious 
vows;  he  d.  Dec.  6,  1849,  aged  74;  10  c.

(Smith)  Jones,  b.  Kingston,  Mass.,  March  15,  1812 ;  as  a  bo}'  he 
was  noted  for  his  skill  in  penmanship,  and  was  placed  as  a  clerk  in 
the  office  of  Benjamin  Rand  of  Boston ;  he  remained  here  but  a 
short  time,  when  he  was  taken  into  the  store  of  his  uncle  Parks, 
then  the  head  of  the  firm  of  Parks,  Wright  &  Co. ;  here  he  dis- 
played marked  business  ability,  and  before  he  was  twenty-one  the 
firm   signed   an  agreement  to  admit   him  as  a  partner  when   he 
became  of  age,  his  share  of  the  profits,  however,  to  date  back  to 
the  time  of  the  agreement ;  he  remained  connected  with  this  firm 
till  his  retirement  from   active  business  in    1861,  the  firm  name 
being  continued  as  Wright  &  Whitman ;  after  the  retirement  of 
Geo.  L.  Whitman,  the  firm  name  was  J.  S.  &  E.  Wright,  later, 
Wright,  Bliss  &  Fabyan,  and  at  present.   Bliss,   Fabyan  &  Co. ; 
E.  P.  Whitman  retired  from  business  because  of  a  paralytic  shock 
which  rendered  his  left  side  almost  useless ;  after  about  a  year  he 
was  able  to  walk  by  the  aid  of  a  cane,  but  the  arm  never  could  be 
used ;  for  twenty  years,  although  thus  afflicted,  he  never  spoke  of 
his  trouble  as  anything  but  a  slight  temporary  affliction,  and  those 
who  met  him  in  his  walks  met  a  man  with  a  cheerful,  not  a  resigned, 
face  ;  he  had  acquired  a  comfortable  fortune  before  leaving  business, 
and  during  the  remainder  of  his  life  gave  largely  in  charity,  and 
contributed  more  money  towards  the  erection  of  the  Congregational 
church  in  Cambridge  than  anyone ;  although  a  man  of  strong  will 
power,  he  had  the  happy  faculty  of  never  giving  offence  and  of 
gaining  a  warm  place  in  the  hearts  of  all  who  knew  him  ;  during  the 
greater  part  of  his  active  life  Mr.  Whitman  resided  at  Boston,  but 
the  few  last  years  of  his  life  he  spent  at  Cambridge,  where  he  d. 
March  24,  1879,  aged  70,  and  where  his  widow  is  now  living ;  Mr. 
Whitman  was  a  man  of  retiring  disposition,  attending  strictly  to 
business  so  long  as  he  felt  called  upon  to  do  so,  and  then  retiring 
from  active  life  to  enjoy  the  freedom  from  care  he  had  so  well 
earned ;  he  was  very  exact  in  all  matters,  and  it  is  related  that 
when  he  received  a  letter  from  any  of  his  children  which  contained 
any  blunder  of  spelling,  he  always  returned  it  for  correction  before 
he  would  reply  to  it ;  5  c,  all  b.  Boston.

A71  Ohituary  Notice  taken  from  "  Zion  Herald^ — "  Rev.  Joseph 
Whitman  was  born  in  the  town  of  Stow,  Middlesex  Co.,  Mass., 
Feb.  15,  1811.  A  few  months  after  his  birth  his  parents  removed 
to  Lincoln,  near  Weston,  where  he  resided,  with  the  exception  of 
about  three  years,  till  1836.     In  1829,  under  the  labors  of  Rev.  D. 


JOHN   WHITMAN    OF   WEYMOUTH.  877 

Fillmore  and  Rev.  I.  Jennison,  he  was  converted  to  God,  though 
he  received  the  evidence  of  his  adoption  while  alone  in  a  grove. 
He  soon  after  united  with  the  Methodist  Episcopal  Church  in 
Weston.  His  conversion  was  succeeded  by  a  glorious  revival  in 
that  place.  He  received  a  local  preacher's  license  from  Rev,  D. 
Kilburn,  Feb.  23,  1837.  In  1838  he  was  appointed  by  the  pre- 
siding elder  to  preach  in  Grafton,  In  1839  he  was  received  on 
trial  into  the  New  England  Conference  and  stationed  at  Hubbards- 
ton.  At  that  time  the  society  in  that  town  was  small,  but  the 
members  nobly  cooperated  with  their  young  pastor  in  the  great 
work  to  which  he  had  been  called.  Aug,  13,  1840,  he  was  united 
in  marriage  with  Miss  Eleanor,  daughter  of  Elisha  and  Eleanor 
(Tower)  Wheeler,  Esq,,  of  Concord,  Mass,  She  was  eminently  quali- 
fied to  assist  him  in  the  great  work  of  winning  souls  to  Christ,  and 
survives  him  to  mourn  her  irreparable  loss,  and  to  train  their  three 
young  children  in  the  way  they  should  go.  In  Hubbardston  their 
labors  were  greatly  blessed,  many  were  converted,  150  united  with 
the  M.  E.  Church,  and  the  society  erected  a  house  of  worship  in 
the  center  of  the  town  during  his  residence  with  them.  In  1841 
he  was  stationed  at  Fitchburg.  There  he  also  found  a  small  society 
which  had  commenced  building  a  church  on  a  most  eligible  site  in 
that  beautiful  village.  The  difficulties  connected  with  the  erection 
of  a  house  of  worship,  by  a  feeble  society,  must  be  realized  in  order 
to  be  fully  understood.  These  difficulties  were  surmounted,  and 
during  his  stay  the  church  and  vestry  were  completed.  He  also 
labored  hard  for  the  salvation  of  souls.  One  winter,  for  seven  suc- 
cessive weeks,  he  and  his  companion  were  every  evening  at  the 
house  of  God.  An  extensive  revival  was  realized,  and  140  were 
added  to  the  M.  E,  Church,  During  the  two  years  he  was  in  that 
place  he  attended  800  meetings,  though  part  of  the  time  he  was 
unable  to  labor  at  all. 

In  1843  he  was  stationed  at  Maiden  Centre,  where  he  labored 
with  his  usual  zeal.  In  addition  to  his  labors  in  Maiden  he  occa- 
sionally preached  at  Medford,  where  a  revival  commenced  and 
about  seventy  were  hopefully  converted  to  God,  A  hall  was  hired 
as  a  place  for  public  worship,  and  for  six  months  previous  to  the 
Annual  Conference  he  made  arrangements  to  supply  them  regularly 
on  the  Sabbath  with  a  minister  of  Christ, 

In  1844  he  was  appointed  to  So,  Boston,  There,  as  in  other 
places,  his  labors  were  blessed  and  sinners  were  'brought  from 
death  to  life,'  In  1846  E.  Boston  was  designated  as  his  field  of 
labor.     In  that  rapidly  increasing  part  of  the  city  a  house  of  worship 


878 


THE    DESCENDANTS    OF 


was  much  needed.  The  society,  with  most  commendable  zeal, 
commenced  the  noble  work,  and  erected,  on  Meriden  st.,  a  commo- 
dious brick  church  with  vestries  in  the  basement.  A  revival  also 
greatly  enlarged  the  society,  and  on  the  Sabbath  their  new  house 
was  filled  with  an  interesting  and  an  attentive  congregation.  The 
kno^vledge  of  his  success  at  his  different  appointments  was  not  con- 
fined to  the  localities  where  he  had  been  stationed,  but  his  reputa- 
tion was  quite  extensive,  and  when  he  left  E.  Boston  probably  no 
member  of  the  N.  E.  Conference  was  desired  by  a  greater  number 
of  societies.  "When  the  appointments  were  announced  in  1848  it 
was  found  that  Milford  was  the  place  to  be  favored  with  his  ser- 
vices. Again  he  was  placed  over  a  young  society,  and  there,  as  in 
a  number  of  previous  appointments,  a  house  of  worship  was  consid- 
ered indispensably  necessary  to  their  continued  prosperity.  The 
society  resolved  to  build,  friends  rallied  to  their  aid,  Lee  Claflin, 
Esq.,  contributed  most  liberally,  and  a  commodious  church  and 
vestry  and  a  convenient  parsonage  next  to  the  church  were  com- 
pleted during  the  period  of  his  labors  in  that  place.  A  revival  also 
added  many  members  to  the  church,  and  on  the  Sabbath  an  inter- 
esting congregation  filled  their  new  house. 

The  Conference  of  1850  was  one  of  deep  solemnity  to  him.  His 
arduous,  unremitted  and  long-continued  labors  had  at  length  so 
impaired  his  health  that  he  could  not  preach,  and  with  deep  emotion 
he  asked  a  location.  The  Conference,  unwilling  to  lose  one  of  its 
most  successful  members,  voted  to  retain  his  name  and  give  him  a 
superannuated  relation.  On  his  return  from  Conference  he  met 
his  family  with  tears,  not  because  he  had  been  appointed  to  a  hard 
or  difficult  field  of  labor,  but  because  that  in  the  prime  of  life  he 
was  a  superannuated  man.  With  the  exception  of  supplying  the 
pulpit  at  'No.  Russell  st.,  Boston,  a  few  months,  he  preached  but 
little  subsequent  to  that  period.  Having  desisted  from  preaching 
his  health  gradually  improved.  Tliis  fact  was  known,  and  though 
unable  to  preach,  his  numerous  friends  were  unwilling  to  be  deprived 
of  his  labors.  In  Nov.,  1853,  he  was  elected  a  member  of  the 
Massachusetts  Senate  by  the  voters  in  Worcester  County.  Soon 
after  he  was  elected  a  member  of  that  honorable  body,  he  was  also 
elected  cashier  of  Hopkinton  Bank. 

The  labors  in  the  Senate,  in  connection  with  his  duties  in  the 
bank,  were  evidently  too  much  for  his  physical  strength,  and  in 
April,  1854,  to  human  appearance  he  was  brought  near  the  grave. 
The  N.  E.  Conference  was  then  in  session,  and  he,  being  desirous 
that  his  name  should  no  longer  remain  on  the  list  of  the  superan- 


JOHN   WHITMAN    OF   WEYMOUTH.  879 

nuated,  once  more  sent  an  earnest  request  asking  location.  ThougH 
the  Conference  regretted  that  he  should  desire  a  relation  which 
would  separate  him  from  that  body  as  a  member,  yet  the  solemn 
request  was  granted.  He  subsequently  partially  regained  his  health, 
and  some  hoped  that  he  might  be  spared  for  years  and  possibly 
again  be  able  to  preach  the  Gospel.  But  all  were  doomed  to  an 
afflicting  disappointment.  The  disease  having  assumed  a  new  form, 
the  skill  of  the  physicians  was  baffled,  the  kind  offices  of  numerous 
friends  proved  inefEectual,  and  about  12  o'clock,  on  the  night  of 
Aug.  8  (1854),  he  left  this  world  of  changes  and  went  triumphantly 
home  to  rest  in  heaven. 

The  funeral  solemnities  were  observed  on  Friday,  Aug.  11.  At 
the  house  of  the  deceased,  prayer,  appropriate  and  fervent,  was 
offered  by  Rev.  J.  T,  Pettee  of  Boston,  after  which,  with  deep 
solemnity,  the  procession  proceeded  to  the  Orthodox  Church.  The 
countenances  of  the  numerous  friends  in  the  congregation  indicated 
that  they  were  conscious  of  the  loss  the  community  had  sustained — 
they  evidently  realized  that  God  was  there.  Rev.  H.  P.  Andrews, 
pastor  of  the  M.  E.  Society  in  Hopkinton,  read  the  1077th  hymn, 
which  was  sung  with  deep  feeling  by  the  choir.  Select  portions  of 
the  Scriptures  were  then  read  by  the  Rev,  I.  Smith  of  Leominster, 
after  which  an  appropriate  and  heart-felt  prayer  was  offered  by 
Rev.  H.  P.  Andrews.  The  1085th  hymn  was  read  by  Rev.  D.  E, 
Chapin  of  Worcester  and  sung  by  the  choir,  after  which  a  deeply 
solemn  congregation  listened  to  a  sermon  by  the  writer,  founded  on 
John  xi.  23,  24.  Subject,  the  resurrection — a  doctrine  most  glorious 
and  full  of  comfort,  but  which  has  been  assailed  by  skeptics  in  all 
ages,  and  is,  by  many  professing  Christians,  at  the  present  time. 
Dr.  Clarke,  referring  to  the  resurrection,  wrote :  '  There  is  not  a 
doctrine  in  the  Gospel  on  which  more  stress  is  laid,  and  there  is  not 
a  doctrine  in  the  present  system  of  preaching  which  is  treated  with 
more  neglect.'  Though  mourning  friends  may  entertain  no  doubt 
that  the  soul  of  the  departed  saint  is  in  heaven,  still,  as  they  see  the 
part  which  is  mortal  placed  in  the  tomb  to  be  seen  on  earth  no  more, 
how  sweet,  how  consoling,  are  the  declarations  of  Holy  Writ,  that 
'  there  shall  be  a  resurrection  of  the  dead,'  and  concerning  the  saints, 
that  '  the  Lord  Jesus  Christ  shall  change  their  vile  bodies  that  they 
may  be  fashioned  like  unto  his  glorious  body.'  At  the  conclusion 
of  the  sermon  an  appropriate  piece  was  sung  by  the  choir,  and  then 
the  benediction  was  pronounced  by  the  Rev.  A.  D.  Sargeant  of 
MiKord,  after  which  the  remains  were  borne  from  the  church  by 
his  ministerial  brethren,  followed  by  a  large  procession,  to  the  silent 


880  THE   DESCENDANTS   OF 

tomb.  The  burial  service  was  read  by  Rev.  A.  D.  Sargeant,  and 
then,  with  many  tears,  mourning  friends  looked  for  the  last  time  in 
this  world  upon  that  countenance  lovely  even  in  death,  and  saw  the 
body  placed  in  the  tomb  to  rest  till  the  resurrection  morn. 

Having  been  intimately  acquainted  with  Bro.  Whitman  for  many 
years,  much  might  be  stated  concerning  those  excellent  qualities 
which  I  beheve  enabled  him,  by  Divine  aid,  to  gain  so  many  sincere 
friends,  and  gave  him  such  great  success,  but  that  must  be  omitted 
at  this  time.  During  his  sickness  he  manifested  a  desire,  if  it  should 
be  Grod's  will,  again  to  enter  the  sacred  desk.  He  would  sometimes 
remark :  '  If  I  should  ever  regain  my  health,  O  how  I  would  labor, 
how  I  would  preach  to  sinners,  to  the  church  and  to  ministers.' 
Bro.  Andrews  and  others  often  conversed  with  him,  and  always 
found  him  evincing  a  spirit  which  indicated  deep  piety  and  a  wil- 
lingness to  remain  and  labor,  or  to  depart  and  be  with  Christ. 
Though  feeble  in  health,  last  March  he  visited  Weston,  the  place 
where  he  was  converted,  and  where  he  united  with  the  M.  E.  Church 
and  received  a  license  to  preach.  On  tlie  Sabbath  he  once  more 
attended  the  church  endeared  to  him  by  so  many  pleasant  associa- 
tions, Bev.  L.  P.  Frost  preached  '  On  the  prospect  of  the  righteous.' 
!N"o  subject  could  have  been  more  congenial  to  his  feelings.  It  was 
the  last  sermon  he  ever  heard.  He  subsequently  often  repeated 
some  expressions  in  the  sermon,  '  forever  saved  in  heaven,'  eternally 
shut  in  with  Christ,'  with  joy  beaming  in  his  countenance.  A  few 
days  before  his  departure,  as  Mrs.  Whitman  entered  his  room,  with 
his  hands  raised  and  looking  upward,  he  was  exclaiming  with  much 
emotion,  '  forever  saved  in  heaven.'  A  few  weeks  previous  to  his 
death  he  attended  a  prayer-meeting  with  the  M.  E.  Society  in  Hop- 
kinton.  During  the  exercises  he  arose  and  with  much  feeling 
addressed  the  congregation,  and  referred  to  the  different  prospects  of 
the  saint  and  sinner  in  the  hour  of  death,  and  entreated  them  all  to 
be  prepared  to  meet  their  God.  His  pale  and  emaciated  appearance, 
his  weak,  tremulous  but  earnest  voice,  and  above  all,  the  truths 
which  he  uttered,  accompanied  by  the  Holy  Spirit,  produced  a 
powerful  effect  upon  all  present.  A  death-like  stillness  prevailed, 
and  many  tears  were  shed  while  the  man  of  God  was  delivering  his 
last  jp'iiblic  message  to  his  dying  fellow-men. 

Having  taken  a  solemn  and  final  leave  of  all  public  meetings  on 
earth,  another  scene  of  deep  solemnity  was  just  before  him.  The 
last  hour  of  his  pilgrimage  was  near,  when  he  must  bid  his  much 
beloved  family  and  dearest  friends  farewell.  The  last  hour  at 
length  arrived.     His  afflicted  companion,  conscious  of  the  fact,  pro- 


JOHN   WHITMAN   OF   WEYMOUTH.  881 

posed  the  solemn  question:  'My  dear  husband,  do  jou  think  that 
you  are  dying  V  He  replied :  '  Yes.'  She  asked  :  '  Do  you  feel 
willing  and  fully  prepared  to  go  V  He  unhesitatingly  answered : 
'  Yes,  I  do,'  and  then  added :  '  If  I  was  not,  there  would  be  no  time 
to  prepare  now.'  He  then  took  the  hand  of  his  beloved  companion 
and  with  much  emotion  commended  her  and  their  three  children  to 
God.  The  last  solemn  duty  being  performed,  in  a  few  moments 
the  immortal  spirit  left  the  tenement  of  clay  to  dwell  eternally  with 
unnumbered  millions  in  heaven.  The  last  expression  he  made  in 
reference  to  himseK  was  :  '  My  faith  is  in  God.'  "

"  Golden  Wedding  at  Rolling  Prairie. — One  of  the  most  inter- 
esting events  in  the  community  for  many  years  was  the  celebration 
of  the  fiftieth  anniversary  of  the  marriage  of  Mr.  and  Mrs.  Durkee 
Lyon,  which  took  place  at  the  old  homestead,  at  Rolling  Prairie,  on 
the  afternoon  of  Friday,  Aug.  18,  1882.  Over  one  hundred  and 
fifty  of  Mr.  Lyon's  friends  and  neighbors  assembled  to  congratulate 
this  favored  couple,  and  spend  the  afternoon  in  renewing  the 
friendly  interest  they  entertained  for  each  other,  and  expressing  the 
kindly  feeling  toward  those  who  had  been  such  good  neighbors  and 
faithful  friends  from  the  pioneer  days  to  the  present  time. 

Mr.  Durkee  Lyon  was  born  in  the  town  of  Troy,  Orleans  Co., 
Yt.,  in  1804,  and  Mrs.  Lyon  was  born  in  Stow,  Mass.,  1814.  They 
were  married  in  Stow,  Aug.  18,  1832,  and  came  to  their  home  in 
Wisconsin,  1843.  Their  family  consisted  of  fourteen  children, 
twelve  of  whom  are  still  hving.

THE    DESCENDANTS   OF 


Wm.  D.  Ljon  was  a  drammer  in  Co.  D,  5th  Wisconsin,  and  was 
killed  at  Fredericksburg,  Ya. 

There  are  seventeen  grandchildren  and  five  great-grandchildren. 

This  occasion  brought  together  many  of  the  old  settlers  of  Dodge 
County,  among  whom  we  may  mention :  Mrs.  Thomas  of  Burnett ; 
Col.  Lockwood,  wife,  and  mother  and  wife's  mother ;  Mr.  and  Mrs. 
James  McCollum ;  Mr.  and  Mrs.  Eldredge  Smith ;  Mr.  and  Mrs. 
John  Holt ;  Mr.  and  Mrs.  O.  Burgitt ;  Mr.  and  Mrs.  Lewis  Sawyer  ; 
Mr.  and  Mrs.  Frank  Grover ;  Mr.  John  Cole  of  Watertown,  cousin 
of  Mr.  Lyon ;  Mr.  and  Mrs.  Horace  Cole  of  Oak  Grove,  cousins  of 
Mr.  Lyon ;  Mr.  and  Mrs.  Kalph  Philips ;  Mr.  WilHam  Holt ;  Mr. 
and  Mrs.  William  Bonner ;  Mr.  E.  J.  Boomer ;  Mr.  and  Mrs.  Wright 
Clifford ;  Mr.  J.  B.  Miller  of  Ohio ;  Mr.  and  Mrs.  F.  H.  Ford ;  Mr. 
and  Mrs.  O.  H.  Crowl ;  Mrs.  Marvin ;  Mrs.  Clark  Drown ;  Mrs.  H. 
H.  Elkins ;  Mrs.  Judd. 

After  a  social  reunion  of  friends,  many  of  whom  had  long  been 
separated,  they  were  invited  to  a  grand  supper  spread  on  a  long 
table  under  the  maples  in  the  front  yard.  Just  before  supper  Mr. 
Yoorhees  asked  the  blessing,  and  Hon.  Lorenzo  Merrill  made  a 
spirited  address  to  the  honored  couple  and  friends  assembled,  in 
which  he  indulged  in  pleasant  reminiscences  of  the  olden  times 
when  he  was  privileged  to  be  the  school-master  for  the  neighbor- 
hood, and  instructed  many  of  the  grown-up  children  present  in  the 
mysteries  of  arithmetic  and  geography,  in  the  old  log  school-house 
by  the  road-side,  thirty  years  ago.  Those  were  the  days  when  the 
children  were  compelled  to  mind  their  teachers  and  study  their 
lessons  under  the  penalty  of  a  '  thrasliing,'  and  Mr.  Frank  Grover 
and  others,  in  their  successful  career,  should  be  thankful  for  the 
'  lacing '  they  got  when  at  school.  He  was  reminded,  as  he  caught 
the  eye  of  one  present,  of  little  Amasa  Drown,  who  was  such  a  con- 
scientious child  that,  on  one  day,  as  school  was  soon  to  be  dismissed, 
he  reminded  the  teacher  that  he  had  not  yet  received  his  daily 
flogging,  which  neglected  duty  was,  of  course,  attended  to  at  once. 

The  speaker  congratulated  Mr.  Lyon  on  his  favorable  choice  of  a 
farm  in  1843,  and  his  equally  good  choice  of  a  companion,  and  raising 
such  a  large  family  of  children  that  he  needn't  be  ashamed  of ;  and 
all  joined  in  expressing  the  hope  that  their  last  days  would  be  their 
best  days,  and  though  the  feebleness  of  age  should  come,  their  hearts 
would  be  warm  with  the  affection  of  their  children  and  friends,  and 
drawn  toward  a  better  country  whose  inhabitants  never  grow  old. 

Among  the  numerous  tokens  of  kindly  interest  were  the  following 
presents  to  Mr.  and  Mrs.  Lyon :   bed-room  set,  bed  spring  and

Putnam  when  he  returned  from  Massachusetts.     He  wrote 

to  us  and  gave  us  what  information  he  could  of  you  all. 


JOHN   WHITMAN    OF   WEYMOUTH.  897 

I  should  have  written  before,  but  my  thoughts  have  been 
principally  taken  up  about  my  future  welfare.  My  inquiry 
has  generally  been,  what  should  I  do  to  be  saved  1  and  I 
hope  it  has  been  the  inquiry  of  you  all.  I  hope  that  we 
shall  all  meet  upon  the  'banks  of  sweet  deliverance'  to 
join  in  one  perpetual  strain  of  praise  to  our  Redeemer. 
Though  I  am  situated  in  the  wilderness,  you  might  suppose 
it  was  a  lonesome  situation.  We  have  moved  about  ten 
miles  from  the  river  on  account  of  our  health.  Our  nearest 
neighbor  is  about  four  miles  distant,  and  the  woods  are 
inhabited  by  bears,  buffalo,  wolves,  panthers,  wild  cats  and 
various  kinds  of  wild  beasts,  and  the  largest  kind  of  ven- 
omous snakes.  They  killed  a  great  many  very  long  rattle- 
snakes last  summer  about  the  house.  They  have  killed  a 
bear  within  100  rods  of  the  house,  yet  I  feel  no  dread.  I 
am  perfectly  satisfied  and  contented.  We  are  all  in  perfect 
health.  We  have  nine  children,  six  daughters  and  three 
sons.  Our  youngest  w^as  born  March  7,  1825.  We  call 
his  name  Nathan  Thomas.  Anzaline  is  up  at  the  mission- 
aries', upwards  of  100  miles  from  here,  at  school.  .  .  .  My 
dear  mother,  I  desire  to  see  you  once  more,  but  it  is  un- 
certain whether  we  ever  meet  on  this  earth  again,  but  I 
hope  we  shall  meet  in  a  better  world  never  to  be  parted 
any  more.  May  the  Lord  bless  you  all  abundantly  with 
his  grace.  Trust  in  the  Lord,  for  he  is  good ;  all  his  ways 
are  pleasantness  and  all  his  paths  are  peace. 

I  remain,  your  affectionate  sister  and  child, 

Mary  Putnam. 

Mr.  Putnam  and  the  children  send  their  best  love  to  you 
all.  Please  to  write  soon,  for  I  want  to  hear  from  you 
very  much.  Direct  your  letters  to  Arkansas  Territory, 
Crawford  County,  and  they  will  come  directly  here."

Boston;  1790,  went  to  Henniker,  N.  H.,  and  made  his 
permanent  residence  there ;  his  homestead  in  Henniker 
is  now  occupied  by  his  grandsons ;  he  is  represented  as 


900  THE   DESCENDANTS    OF 

an  energetic  business  man  and  highly  respected  among 
the  old  merchants  of  Boston  ;  he  was  a  Mason  and  member 
of  the  Rising  States  Lodge  of  Boston,  from  which,  in  1801, 
he  received  a  diploma ;  he  is  said  to  have  been  the  owner 
of  the  first  chaise  in  Henniker;  the  settlement  of  this 
family  in  Henniker  happened  thus :  in  1690  a  naval  expe- 
dition was  dispatched  against  Quebec  under  the  command 
of  Sir  William  Phipps ;  one  of  the  companies,  composed 
of  men  from  Stow,  Marlborough  and  Westborough,  was 
under  the  command  of  Capt.  Andrew  Gardner ;  the  money 
received  by  the  soldiers  was  the  paper  currency  of  the 
Colony,  which  was  so  depreciated  as  to  be  almost  worth- 
less; in  view  of  this  fact  the  heirs  of  Capt.  Gardner's 
company,  headed  by  John  Whitman^  of  Stow,  in  1728 
petitioned  the  General  Court  for  a  grant  of  land  in  settle- 
ment of  their  claims;  after  many  delays,  in  1736  the 
Court  granted  the  petitioners  township  No.  6,  lying  in  the 
line  of  towns  between  the  Connecticut  and  Merrimac 
Rivers ;  the  petitioners,  some  sixty  in  number,  met  in 
Concord,  Sept.,  1737,  and  allotted  the  land  among  them- 
selves ;  this  tract  soon  after  became  the  town  of  Henniker ; 
it  has  not  been  ascertained  in  what  manner  Edward^ 
became  possessed  of  this  property,  as  no  deeds  are  found 
among  the  records,  and  no  mention  is  made  of  this  property 
in  the  will  of  John^ ;  the  property  was  probably  given  to 
Zechariah*,  and  he  divided  it  between  his  sons  Edward^, 
DanieP  and  John^;  Zechariah^  was  already  settled  at 
Westminster,  while  Thomas^  remained  at  Stow  and  received 
the  property  in  that  town ;  no  will  of  Zechariah*  has  been 
found  to  throw  any  light  upon  this  point;  Edward^  d.

after  their  marriage  they  settled  at  Henniker,  N.  H.,  and, 
1798,  removed  to  Brownfield,  Me.,  where  she  d.  June 
23,  1838,  aged  83;  a  grandson  writes:  "I  remember 
Grandmother  Whitman,  and  was  impressed  by  her  quiet, 
genial  temperament  and  her  impassive  equanimity ;  all  of 
her  children  partook  much  of  her  spirit,  were  gifted  with 
good  sense  but  no  brilliance  of  intellect,  disposed  to  be 
retiring  and  reticent,  were  upright  and  temperate ;  I  never 
knew  or  heard  of  any  dissipation  among  them ;  it  was  a 
hard  beginning  for  them  in  the  shades  of  the  thick  forest, 
but  as  pioneers  they  achieved  much ;  of  her  sons  Abel  was 
the  most  energetic,  assuming  the  mortgage  on  the  home- 
stead ;  soon  after  his  father's  demise  he  became  its  pos- 
sessor— a  tract  of  2,500  acres  richly  timbered ;  he  was  a 
town,  count}^  and  State  man ;  his  children  looked  farther 
than  Brownfield  in  consequence  of  a  mother's  teaching  ;" 
Capt.  Timothy  Gibson  came  with  his  father  and  was  among 
the  early  settlers  at  Henniker ;  he  at  once  became  promi- 
nent in  the  town  and  soon  had  a  State-wide  reputation ; 
during  his  residence  in  New  Hampshire  he  was  continually 
in  office ;  was  a  delegate  and  leading  spirit  in  the  Provin- 
cial Congress  which  met  at  Exeter,  May  17,  1775;  his 
hand  was  in  every  State  movement  in  the  Revolution,  and 
he  was  tireless  in  his  efforts  to  raise  men  and  subsistence ; 
was  selectman  of  Henniker  from  1776-78,  representative 
in  1794 — 1796-97  ;  was  the  first  justice  of  the  peace  com- 
missioned in  open  town-meeting,  1776  ;  was  also,  for  a 
time,  town  clerk ;  after  the  destruction  of  the  log  meeting- 
house, church  services  were,  for  a  time,  held  in  his  house  ; 
he  was  possessed  of  a  sound  judgment  and  an  excellent 
executive  ability,  and  was  one  of  the  ablest  citizens  of  the 
State;"    a    grandson    writes:    "I   cannot   but  regard   the

''  Winchester,  Franklin  Co.,  Tenn.,  ) 
April  26,  1886.  \ 

Mr.  Charles  H.  Farnam — 

Dear  Sir: — Yours  of  the  19th  inst.  received,  in  which 
you  make  the  double  request  of  me :  that  I  prepare  a 
brief  sketch  of  my  grandfather  Whitman ;  also,  to  tell  you 
something  of  myself.  It  would  suit  me  better  to  be 
excused.  This  rather  overreaches  me.  The  one  some- 
what too  grave  and  responsible ;  the  other  wanting  signifi- 
cance to  attract  much  interest.  Let  me  prefer  that  which 
is  entitled  to  most  respect  and  reverence.  Somethinsr  like 
120  years  ago  my  grandfather  first  saw  the  light  of  day. 
Born  within  the  realm  of  King  George  III.,  he  witnessed 
the  dawn  of  the  Republic — its  baptism  and  christening  in 
the  blood  of  heroes — this  foundling,  this  offspring  of  patri- 
ots and  statesmen.  Certainly  early  events  with  him  were 
startling.  A  change — what  a  change — how  wondrous  ! 
Has  another  '  Aladdin's  lamp '  been  through  the  land  ? 
Yea,  more  so.  Are  the  spirits  of  the  departed  permitted 
again  to  revisit  the  earth  to  look  upon  this  change  ? 
Grandfather  was  an  old  man  when  I  could  first  remember, 
at  least  sixty  years  old.  Now  this  was  sixty-two  years 
ago,  and  what  1  knew  of  him  was  in  my  childhood  and 
boyhood  days.  You  can  well  see  the  estimate  to  be 
placed  upon  this.  One  so  young,  thoughtless,  little  given 
to  observation  and  reflection,  it  cannot  amount  to  but  little, 
save  only  it  has  the  essential  truth.  Of  his  early  days  and 
more  mature  manhood  I  can  possibly  know  but  little,  only 
from  relation,  fireside  talk  and  family  conferences ;  but 
these  are  reliable,  coming  as  they  do  from  grandmother 
and  mother.  A  child's  sympathy  and  attention  are  always 
enlisted  when  these  touching  things  are  discussed.  They 
never  burn  out  or  decay — fed,  kept  alive,  with  a  feeling 
that  is  sacred. 

Daniel  Whitman  was  a  man  of  mark,  features  bold  in 
outline,  open  and  confiding,  robust  in  form,  square  built, 


JOHN   WHITMAN    OF    WEYMOUTH.  925 

strong  physically  and  mentally.  He  traveled  New  En- 
gland considerably  on  business  of  various  kinds  ;  was  once 
in  the  lumber  and  timber  cutting  business ;  got  out  and 
furnished  lumber  for  the  renowned  old  ship,  the  '  Constitu- 
tion ;'  kept  an  assorted  retail  store ;  was  thrifty  and  well 
to  do  in  'getting  on;'  met,  loved  and  married  the  brave 
little  beauty  and  wit,  Sallie  Kast,  and  their  fortunes,  be 
they  what  they  may,  were  united.  They  lived,  loved  and 
were  happy,  and  prospered  well  until  the  spirit  of  adven- 
ture came.  The  vision  of  the  '  Far  West,'  the  blooming 
South,  rose  alluring  and  alluring  to  thousands,  and  still 
alluring,  till  the  '  Great  West '  has  ceased  to  be  a  camping- 
ground — a  scene  now  of  busy  life,  populous  cities,  churches, 
colleges,  railroads  and  wealth.  His  was  then  no  dream  of 
the  enthusiast  but  a  reality.  I  can  but  admire  his  pluck 
and  energy — this  is  bravery. 

But  in  an  evil  hour  he  unfortunately  came  in  contact 
with  some  land-jobbers,  eastern  sharpers,  speculators  in 
Virginia  lands ;  was  induced  to  invest,  to  emigrate ;  was 
deluded,  victimized  and  defrauded.  The  lands  were  a 
wild,  lying  far  back  in  inaccessible  mountains,  and  the 
titles  worthless  and  fraudulent,  and  wearied  with  hunting 
them  up  he  settled  down  in  Halifax  Co.,  Va.,  somewhere 
near  1808.  Here  he  found  generous  friends,  hospitable 
neighbors,  and  soon  won  his  way  with  these  good  people, 
a  stranger  in  a  strange  land.  Conceive  the  situation ;  a 
trying  one,  sure.  A  new  start,  a  new  beginning,  had  to 
be  begun,  and  quite  well  it  was  done.  Not  long  ere  he 
had  a  home,  cattle,  horses  and  herds  around  him ;  kept  a 
village  hostelry  and  old-time  tavern,  a  house  of  public, 
entertainment;  was  popular,  courteous,  kind,  just  and 
honest,  over-induigent  to  his  debtors  for  his  own  pecuniary 
good;  with  qualities  such  as  these,  however  noble  and 
generous,  success  is  rarely  ever  very  flattering. 

And   again   the   time    comes;    the  teeming,   bounding, 
promising  West  looms  up,  the  tide  of  emigration  is  flow-

ing,  excitement  high,  great  news  from  away  beyond  the 
mountains,  and  accordingly,  in  Nov.,  1829,  we  find  him 
taking  his  course  with  the  setting  sun,  leaving  the  married 
families  behind  to  follow  in  the  coming  next  year.  Part- 
ing with  the  best  of  friends  and  neighbors,  and  still  length- 
ening the  wide  stretch  from  his  once  quiet  home  away  back 
in  the  hills  of  New  Hampshire — was  this  an  hallucination, 
a  roving  disposition?  No,  sir;  an  enterprising  spirit  of 
manliness  was  in  him  Avhich  nothing  could  subdue.  The 
one  great  impulse  that  actuated  him — the  wish  of  his  heart 
and  the  effort  of  his  life — was  to  settle  his  children  around 
him  in  a  land  and  clime  of  health  and  bounteous  produc- 
tions. Many  of  them  found  fruitful  homes,  others  '  West- 
ward ho  !'  The  24th  day  of  Dec,  1829,  we  were  at  '  Ross's 
Landing,'  then  an  Indian  village,  not  a  white  settler  there ; 
now  a  city,  Chattanooga,  of  20,000  inhabitants.  The  25th, 
Christmas  day,  we  were  at  '  Gunter's  Landing,'  now  Gun- 
tersville,  a  town  of  some  importance.  Mr.  Gunter,  a  white 
man,  a  venerable,  patriarchal-looking  gentleman  (his  wife, 
an  Indian),  sent  a  pressing  invitation  to  the  family  to  take 
a  feast-day's  dinner.  It  was  accepted  on  the  part  of 
grandmother,  uncle  Robert  and  some  others.  A  fine  dinner 
was  spread,  and  two  handsome  Indian  ladies — half-breeds, 
Mr.  G.'s  daughters — presided.  A  ball-play  was  going  on 
all  day,  pony  racing,  etc.  I  kept  close  under  my  grand- 
mother's arm.  The  1st  day  of  Jan.,  1830,  found  us  at 
Huntsville,  Ala.,  among  many  old  acquaintances,  former 
residents  of  the  '  Old  Dominion,'  and  greetings  and  wel- 
comes met  us  all  around.  This  was  the  '  land  of  cotton,' 
and  it  proved  the  wealthiest  place  I  ever  saw  of  its  size. 

But  to  return  to  the  subject — the  character  of  the  man. 
I  never  knew  him  to  talk  nonsense ;  jesting,  idle  tricks, 
low  humor,  had  no  pleasure  for  him.  The  use  of  tobacco 
was  eschewed  in  every  form ;  gunning  and  fishing,  he 
gave  no  time  to  these ;  never  saw  him  with  gun,  rod  or 
tackle  in  his  hands ;  the  whip  and  spur,  useless  articles  to 


JOHN    WHITMAN    OF   WEYMOUTH.  927 

him  for  man,  boy  or  beast.  If  there  is  anything  a  mis- 
chievous boy  never  forgets  and  ever  remembers  it  is  the 
flash  of  an  angered  parent's  eye,  the  foreboding  counte- 
nance of  something  coming,  but  I  never  saw  this  with 
grandfather ;  never  saw  him  mad,  hot  and  in  high  temper ; 
and  if  he  ever  sang  it  was  to  his  own  musing  and  within, 
and  to  whistle  in  his  presence  was  to  wrong  him.  Give 
but  argument,  solid  talk,  and  you  would  catch  and  take 
attention.  Mild  in  speech  and  manners ;  a  deep-toned 
expression  of  thought  ever  rested  on  his  countenance ; 
pleasing  and  polite  withal ;  no  wrangles,  no  law-suits,  no 
violence  or  difficulties  with  neighbors ;  rarely  ever  went 
to  public  gatherings,  elections,  parades,  etc.  Fourth  of 
July,  Christmas  and  other  holidays  he  enjoyed  mostly  at 
home  with  company — dinners  of  roasts,  mince-pies,  pud- 
dings, doughnuts,  cream  toast,  tea  and  coffee,  and  the 
never  omitted  egg-nog.  He  could  never  be  induced  to 
own  slaves ;  the  right  of  others  to  do  so  he  never  ques- 
tioned or  controverted,  and  was  a  stickler  for  all  constitu- 
tional guarantees,  and  lived  in  harmony  with  the  people 
among  whom  his  lot  was  cast.  His  children — sons  and 
daughters — married  all  Southern  (born  and  bred)  people 
with  one  exception — the  eldest,  Philip,  who  was  married 
before  coming  to  Virginia. 

Capt.  Whitman,  for  so  he  was  known  and  called,  was  a 
clear-headed  man,  his  opinions  respected  and  held  in  high 
regard.  Ostentation,  show  and  pride  were  avoided  and 
shunned  by  him.  Plain,  frugal  and  economical,  never  cov- 
etous or  avaricious,  more  the  philosopher  than  the  specu- 
lative theorist,  patient  under  reverses  and  trying  circum- 
stances, and  forbearing  with  the  evil,  aiding  and  assisting 
the  good.  He  died  in  peace,  at  his  home  and  farm,  with 
family,  relations  and  friends  around,  in  Bedford  Co.,  Tenn. 

'  After  life's  fitful  fever  he  sleeps  well.' 

Much  has  been  omitted,  necessarily  so.  The  biography

do  not  feel  fully  satisfied  that  I  have  done  full  justice  to 
the  memory  of  this  good  man,  but  it  was  all  the  limits

"  Winchester,  Tenn.,  April  27,  1886. 
Mr.  Charles  H.  Farnam — 

My  Dear  Sir : — You  do  not  put  me  in  a  bad  humor  with  myself 
when  you  so  modestly  compliment  me,  and  quietly  ask  of  me  to 
say  something  of  myself.  A  few  scattering  weeks  and  months  in 
the  school-house ;  twenty-five  years  at  the  desk  and  counter,  boy 
and  master ;  four  years  of  war ;  ten  years  at  the  bar ;  a  tourist, 
somewhat,  abroad ;  a  traveler  in  my  own,  dear  native  lands ;  the 
waters  of  the  Mississippi,  its  tributaries  and  its  estuary,  are  known 
to  me  ;  the  great  cities  of  our  Union  and  its  famous  Capital  are  not 


JOHN   WHITMAN   OF   WEYMOUTH.  929 

entirely  unfamiliar  to  me — but  I  desist ;  with  this,  a  line  from  one 
of  the  Scotch  bards,  Scott,  I  think,  which  hits  me  pretty  fair : 

'  For  I  was  ever  wayward,  bold  and  wild, 
A  self-willed  imp,  a  grandma's  child.' 

But  to  understand  better,  let  Mr.  Carr  utter  himself,  with  a  life 
traced  in  honor's  work  almost  to  its  end  ;  he  would  say  : 

'  The  days  of  my  youthful  gladness  are  o'er, 

The  night  of  old  age  with  its  darkness  hath  come  ; 
Time  hath  shattered  my  bark,  broken  the  oar, 
That  braved  the  current  of  life  when  stout  and  young. 

But  around  me  with  warmth  gather  the  friendships  of  old, 

And  the  hopes  of  the  future  still  cluster  my  heart ; 
The  memories  of  the  past,  ah  !  what  pleasures  unfold— 

Erelong  we  shall  from  these,  the  world  and  its  brightness,  depart.' 

Yours,  H.  T.  C."

1810 ;  m.  June  17,  1840,  Sarah  Farrington,  daughter  of  Ezekiel 
Merrill,  b.  Andover,  Me.,  Nov.  15,  1818 ;  d.  Lynn,  Mass.,  Nov.  8, 
1883 ;  they  settled  for  a  time  at  Norway,  and  later,  went  "West ;  he 
d.  St.  Paul,  Minn.,  Aug.  13,  1876 ;  4  c. 

"  Mr.  Hobbs  was  a  native  of  Norway,  Me.,  and  his  home  was  in 
his  native  town  until,  about  1871,  he  removed  to  Minnesota,  and 
settled  at  Swede  Grove,  on  the  Northern  Pacific  Pailroad,  about  60 
miles  westward  of  St.  Paul.  He  there  engaged  in  mercantile  pur- 
suits, conducting  a  large  and  successful  business  until  a  few  weeks 
before  his  death,  when  he  was  attacked  with  inflammation  of  the 
kidneys.  The  resident  physician  having  failed  to  relieve  him,  he 
went,  accompanied  by  his  wife,  to  St.  Paul  for  treatment,  but  there, 
too,  medical  skill  proved  in  vain,  and  in  little  more  than  a  week 
death  came  to  end  his  great  suffering. 

Mr.  Hobbs  had  the  advantage  of  a  superior  academic  education, 
and  for  several  years  was  a  very  successful  instructor  of  youth, 
having  taught  on  Paris  Hill,  at  Augusta,  Andover  and  many  other 
places.  At  Andover  he  made  the  acquaintance  of  Miss  Sarah  F. 
Merrill,  daughter  of  Dea.  Ezekiel  Merrill,  whom  he  married.  He 
settled  upon  a  farm  in  his  native  town,  but  when  the  gold  mines  of 

60 


946  THE   DESCENDANTS   OF 

California  became  an  attraction,  his  stirring  nature  and  robust 
physique  could  not  withstand  the  temptation.  He,  with  others, 
raised  a  company,  of  whom  he  was  chosen  captain,  and  they  crossed 
the  plains  to  the  golden  State.  After  two  years  of  successful  mining 
he  returned  to  his  family,  piirchased,  took  up  his  residence  upon  and 
improved,  the  old  homestead  at  l^orway  Centre.  While  residing 
there  he  represented  the  town  in  the  Legislature,  and  held  various 
other  positions  of  trust.  Thi-ough  the  influence  of  Senator  Fessen- 
den  he  received  an  appointment  in  Washington ;  but  official  life  at 
the  Capital  did  not  please  him,  and  after  two  years'  service  he 
resigned  and  went  into  business  in  Minnesota,  where  he  became 
widely  known  and  was  universally  held  in  high  esteem. 

Mr.  Hobbs  was  richly  endowed  with  both  physical  and  mental 
powers,  and,  though  never  seeking  prominence,  he  always  wielded 
a  large  influence.  He  was  a  public-spirited  citizen,  a  wise  coun- 
sellor, a  true  and  generous  friend,  a  most  indulgent  and  devoted 
husband  and  father.  His  sudden  death  was  a  severe  blow  to  his 
family — consisting  of  wife,  son  and  two  daughters — and  carried 
sincere  sorrow  to  a  very  large  circle  of  relatives  and  attached 
friends." 

141Y5.  Adela  Sophronia  Hobbs^,  b.  July  12,  1842 ;  m.  April 
18,  1867,  Hon.  John  Milton,  son  of  Nathan  and  Susan  (Merrill) 
Adams,  b.  Rumford,  Me.,  Sept.  22,  1819 ;  he  attended  the  district 
school  till  ten  years  of  age,  when  the  sudden  death  of  his  father 
demanded  that  his  time  should  be  spent  in  assisting  in  the  support 
of  the  family ;  for  the  next  five  years  he  worked  upon  the  farm, 
receiving  such  instruction  from  his  mother  as  time  permitted ; 
desiring  to  secure  a  college  education,  he  attended,  successively. 
Turner  Grammar  School,  Bethel  and  Bridgeton  Academies,  sup- 
porting himself  by  teaching  school  during  the  winter ;  in  1839  he 
took  charge  of  New  Market  Academy,  Kent  Co.,  Md.,  and  taught 
successfully  for  two  years,  when  he  was  called  home  by  the  death 
of  a  brother ;  compelled  to  abandon  the  idea  of  a  college  course,  he 
attended,  for  two  years,  the  seminary  at  Gorham,  Me.,  and  then 
went  to  St.  Hyacinthe  College,  Canada,  where  he  acquired  a  thor- 
ough knowledge  of  French ;  in  1844  he  began  the  study  of  law 
with  Fessenden  &  Deblois,  at  Portland,  also  teaching  French  in 
Mr.  Packard's  school  for  young  ladies ;  in  1846  was  admitted  to 
the  bar  and  entered  upon  the  practice  of  his  profession ;  in  1848  he 
entered  into  partnership  with  the  late  John  A.  Poor,  the  distin- 
guished railroad  projector  and  writer ;  in  1850-51  he  made  a  visit 


JOHN   WHITMAN    OF   WEYMOUTH.  947 

to  Europe,  acting  as  correspondent  of  the  Railroad  Journal  of 
New  York ;  on  his  return  he  was  appointed  Colonel  on  the  staff  of 
Gov.  Hubbard ;  in  1855  he  temporarily  assumed  the  editorial  chair 
of  the  Eastern  Argxis  while  the  editor,  John  Appleton,  was  serving 
as  Secretary  of  Legation  at  London  ;  in  1856  was  appointed  reporter 
of  judicial  business  and  edited  Yols.  XLI.  and  XLII.  of  the  Maine 
reports ;  he  formed,  about  this  time,  a  partnership  with  Hon. 
Nathan  Clifford,  which  continued  till  Mr.  Clifford  was  appointed 
Associate  Justice  of  U.  S.  Supreme  Court ;  he  was  then  selected,  by 
the  proprietors  of  \hQ- Eastern  Argus ^  as  editor-in-chief  and  manager, 
a  position  which,  after  some  hesitation,  he  accepted,  and  which  he 
has  since  continuously  held,  having  become  its  sole  proprietor  soon 
after  the  disastrous  fire  of  1866 ;  the  management  of  one  of  the 
leading  journals  of  the  Eastern  States,  for  thirty-two  years,  has 
brought  him,  face  to  face,  with  the  great  political  questions  of  the 
State  and  Nation,  in  the  discussion  of  which  his  ready  pen,  his  lucid 
exposition  of  facts,  and  liis  prompt  and  unreserved  opinions,  as 
expressed  through  the  columns  of  his  paper,  has  won  for  him  the 
confidence  of  the  thinking  portion  of  his  readers ;  though  often 
solicited  to  take  office,  he  has  almost  invariably  declined,  accepting 
once  the  post  of  County  Superintendent  of  Schools,  and  twice  con- 
senting to  serve  his  residence  town,  Deering,  in  the  Legislature ;  in 
1888  President  Cleveland  tendered  him  an  appointment  as  member 
of  the  Board  of  Visitors  to  the  U.  S.  Military  Academy  at  West 
Point,  which  he  accepted,  as  its  duties  would  require  but  brief 
service ;  his  skill  as  a  manager  is  amply  attested  by  the  fact,  that 
the  Argus  has  the  largest  circulation  of  any  paper  in  the  State ; 
for  the  many  years  he  resided  in  Portland  he  always  took  a 
leading  part  in  matters  pertaining  to  the  interest  and  prosperity 
of  that  city,  its  public  enterprises  and  the  welfare  of  its  citizens ;

"  To  the  Editor  of  the  Transcript: — I  wish  to  call  atten- 
tion to  the  career  of  a  venerable  Massachusetts  citizen — 
perhaps  the  last  representative  of  a  by-gone  generation — 
whose  funeral  took  place  yesterday  afternoon  (Jan.  2), 
with  appropriate  services,  in  the  Central  Church  of  this 
city.  The  relatives  and  friends  who  attended  and  took 
their  farewell  glance  of  the  placid  face — reposing  serenely 
in  the  coffin  as  though  it  were  the  customary  bed  of  the 
mortal  body — were  all  impressed  by  the  absence  of  any 
suggestion  of  that  senility  which  is  apt  to  mark  the  features 
of  extreme  old  age  when  physical  vitality  has  departed. 
He  seemed  not  to  have  died,  but  to  have  quietly  fallen

asleep ;  and  '  to  be  continued '  rather  than  '  finis '  was 
written  in  every  lineament  of  that  gracious  countenance, 
which,  in  what  we  call  life,  ever  beamed  affection  and  vig- 
orous good-will  to  all  within  its  view.  The  man  of  ninety 
years,  lying  there  in  his  shroud,  appeared  to  be  the  same 
man  whom,  a  few  days  before,  all  of  us  had  recognized  as 
singularly  erect  and  vigorous  for  one  of  his  advanced 
years;  and,  indeed,  it  was  only  an  accidental  cold  which 
brought  on  a  disease,  which  is  as  common  to  youth  as  to 
age,  that  brought  him  thus  low.  On  Christmas  day,  sur- 
rounded by  his  children,  grandchildren  and  great-grand- 
children, the  present  writer  laughingly  said  to  him  :  '  Well, 
uncle,  you  will  live  to  write  all  our  obituaries  !'  and  there 
was  nothing  in  his  cheerful  response  which  made  the 
prophecy  impossible. 

This  elderly  gentleman,  Charles  Russell,  was  a  shining 
example  of  the  old  style  of  country  gentleman  of  New 
England.  He  began  life  with  nothing  but  intelligence, 
frugality  and  honesty ;  he  never  attained  the  position  of  a 
man  of  wealth,  and  he  never  strove  for  it ;  he  was  the  first 
business  man  in  the  town  where  he  lived  and  of  the  villages 
which  surrounded  it ;  but  he  so  thoroughly  gave  his  cus- 
tomers the  best  goods  that  could  be  obtained,  and  charged 
so  small  a  commission  on  his  sales,  that  it  was  impossible 
for  him  to  get  rich.  He  acquired,  however,  something 
better  than  riches — the  reputation  for  intelligence,  integrity, 
piety  and  solid  character ;  and  he  became  a  public  man 
and  a  legislator  because  he  really  represented  the  manly 
and  intelligent  constituency  of  farmers  who  sent  him  to 
the  General  Court. 

A  few  years  ago  I  happened  to  meet  the  late  Governor 
Bullock  at  the  '  Wachusett  House '  in  Princeton.  As  we 
were  walking  on  the  piazza  of  the  hotel,  conversing  about 
the  difference  between  the  present  and  the  past  method  of 
electing  members  to  the  Massachusetts  Senate  and  House 
of  Representatives,  he  suddenly  took  me  by  the  arm  and 


958  THE    DESCENDANTS   OF 

asked  me  if  I  saw  that  little  white  house,  about  half  a  mile 
off,  sheltered  by  some  trees  and  bushes.  I  answered  yes, 
the  Governor  having  not  the  slightest  suspicion  that  I  knew 
the  house,  because  for  more  than  thirty  years  I  had  enjoyed 
the  cordial  hospitality  of  its  inmates.  '  Well,'  he  resumed, 
'  I  call  your  attention  to  that  dwelling  because  it  is  the 
residence  of  almost  the  last  surviving  specimen  of  the  old 
school  of  our  legislators.  Mr.  Charles  Russell  lives  in  it ; 
and  when  our  representation  was  by  towns,  that  man  was 
chosen  to  represent  Princeton  because  he  knew  everybody 
in  it,  and  consequently  everybody  knew  him.  He  embod- 
ied Princeton ;  he  was  this  town  individualized ;  he  was 
trusted  because  everybody  who  voted  for  him  was  certain 
he  was  worthy  of  being  trusted ;  and  I  look  upon  him  as 
one  of  the  best  living  examples  in  the  whole  State  of  what 
was  done  in  the  old  time  when  every  voter  knew  his  rep- 
resentative as  he  knew  his  friends  and  neighbors.  Such  a 
man  is  worthy  of  all  respect.  If  you  stay  here  long  you 
should  try  to  make  his  acquaintance.'  It  was  only  after 
the  Governor  had  delivered  his  panegyric  that  I  informed 
him  the  little  '  white  house '  of  Princeton  was  more  dear  to 
me  than  the  big  one  at  Washington,  and  that  I  had  called 
his  model  citizen  by  the  name  of  '  Uncle  Russell '  after 
many  years  of  cordial  intercourse  with  him. 

In  fact,  Charles  Russell  was  for  years,  on  the  principle 
of  '  natural  selection,'  the  chief  man  in  Princeton — not 
because  he  sought  office  but  because  office  sought  him. 
He  became  town  clerk  and  postmaster;  from  1826  to  1833 
the  town  insisted  on  his  being  its  representative  in  the 
General  Court;  and  then  the  county  of  Worcester  sent 
him  for  four  years  to  the  Senate.  He  was  then  for  three 
years  annually  elected  a  member  of  the  governor's  council. 

There  is  one  notable  fact  to  be  remembered  in  all  these 
indications  of  the  respect  which  Princeton  and  Worcester 
County  had  for  Mr.  Russell.  The  town  and  county  knew, 
of  course,  tha  the  was  incorruptible  as  far  as  money  was 


JOHN   WHITMAN   OF   WEYMOUTH.  959 

concerned ;  but  there  is  another  method  of  corruption  far 
more  subtle  in  its  influence  than  that  addressed  to  the 
greed  for  illicit  gain.  This  method  is,  in  short,  the  appeal 
to  vanity  which  demoralizes  honest  people  more  than  is 
generally  supposed.  Certain  leaders  in  the  '  good  society  ' 
of  the  metropolis  may,  for  instance,  desire  to  push  some 
schemes  intended  for  their  private  advantage.  They  prob- 
ably buy  a  vote  here  and  there  ;  the  purchased  representa- 
tive is  soon  detected  by  his  shrewd  constituents,  and  is 
allowed  to  escape  infamy  by  being  dropped  into  the 
obscurity  of  legislative  oblivion  to  be  heard  of  no  more ; 
but  the  parties,  the  dinners,  the  blandishments  of  fashion- 
able society,  are  more  likely  to  corrupt  the  average  rustic 
legislator  than  any  direct  appeals  to  his  cupidity. 

Mr.  Russell  was  '  iron-clad '  by  his  conscience  and 
integrity  to  both  of  these  methods  of  converting  an'honest 
man  into  a  knave.  Hardly  any  legislator  of  his  time  was 
more  flattered  by  invitations  to  the  dinners  and  parties  of 
the  opulent ;  but  he  never  appeared  in  any  company  where 
he  did  not  appear  on  an  easy  equality  with  any  gentleman 
in  it ;  and  it  was  soon  seen  that  he  was  one  of  that  high- 
bred class  called  by  Dry  den  '  God  Almighty's  gentlemen,' 
whose  inbred  courtesy  suffices  for  all  conventional  imita- 
tions of  it,  and  who  could  not  be  flattered  into  voting  for 
anything  against  which  their  conscience  and  their  sense  of 
duty  to  their  constituents  protested. 

It  is  impossible  for  me  to  say  all  that  I  would  in  cele- 
bration of  the  virtues  of  this  good  citizen,  because  your 
space  is  more  limited  than  my  warm  love  and  admiration. 
I  must  therefore  close  by  quoting  a  stanza  from  a  great 
poet,  showing  that  in  old  age,  after  Mr.  Russell  had  left 
politics  and  business,  he  quietly  enjoyed  the  remunerations 
which  a  virtuous  maturity  of  manhood  lends  to  a  happy 
old  age.  All  who  knew  and  loved  him  will  ever  remember 
his  erect  bearing  when  eighty-nine  years  old.  This  stal- 
wart erectness  of  person  was  but  the  symbol  of  a  moral 


960  THE    DESCENDANTS   OF 

erectness  of  stainless  integrity  that  feared  to  look  no  man 
in  the  eye.     So  we  may  say  of  him : 

'  Thy  thoughts  and  feelings  shall  not  die, 
Nor  leave  thee,  when  gray  hairs  are  nigh, 

A  melancholy  slave  ; 
But  an  old  age,  serene  and  bright. 
And  lovely  as  a  Lapland  night. 

Shall  lead  thee  to  thy  grave.'  e.  p.  w."

Wood;  she  d.  June  8,  1836  ;  m.  2.  March  26,  1840,  Lydia, 
daughter  of  Jacob  and  Esther  Whitney ;  he  studied  medi- 
cine with  Dr.  Eldridge,  the  father  of  the  first  husband  of 
"Fanny  Fern;"  it  is  related  that  when  residing  at  the 
home  of  the  Doctor,  young  Whitman,  with  another  student, 
placed  a  quantity  of  quicksilver  in  the  pudding  bag ;  when 
the  pudding  was  put  in  the  hot  water  it  jumped  out  upon 
the  floor  much  to  the  terror  of  the  cook,  who  declared  it 
bewitched ;  Dr.  Whitman  entered  upon  life  under  the 
brightest  auspices ;  his  father  left  him  the  bulk  of  his 
property  and  a  large  professional  practice ;  with  his  bride 
he  received  a  dower  of  several  thousand  pounds ;  they 
were,  at  the  time,  said  to  have  been  the  wealthiest  couple 
ever  married  at  Stow  ;  Miss  Wood's  wedding  costume  is 
reported  to  have  been  a  handsomely  embroidered  white 
India  muslin,  a  long  white  satin  cloak  trimmed  with  white 
fur,  and  a  large  white  hat  with  white  ostrich  plumes ;  their 
house  was  furnished  with  great  elegance,  but  nearly  every- 
thing was  destroyed  by  a  fire  in  1812,  which  occurred 
while  the  family  were  at  church ;  the  only  articles  saved 
were  the  Doctor's  watch,  a  single  necklace  of  Mrs.  Whit- 
man's, and  a  silver  tankard,  an  heir-loom  in  the  family, 
into  which,  it  was  said,  every  new-born  infant  was  placed 
to  see  if  the  lid  would  close  ;  the  disposition  of  the  property 
under  his  father's  will,  however,  involved  the  Doctor  in  an 
interminable  litigation,  and  though  he  in  the  end  was  suc- 
cessful, it  was  still  at  the  expense  of  a  large  portion  of  his 


970  THE   DESCENDANTS   OF 

estate ;  a  man  of  most  generous  disposition,  he  was  ever 
ready  to  lend  a  helping  hand  to  his  friends  and  neighbors ; 
he  endorsed  for  his  brother-in-law,  one  Brooks  of  Montreal, 
and  not  only  suffered  a  loss  of  several  thousand  pounds, 
but  was  compelled  to  take  the  Brooks  family  into  his 
household  and  support  them ;  in  business  matters  he  was 
lax,  and  rarely  presented  a  bill  for  medical  services ; 
between  1792-1801  he  represented  the  town  six  terms  in 
the  General  Court;  in  1802  he  was  appointed  surgeon  of 
the  2d  Regiment  of  Militia ;  in  personal  appearance  he 
greatly  resembled  Daniel  Webster,  and  it  is  said  that  a 
portrait  of  Webster  would  require  but  few  alterations  to 
make  it  a  good  portrait  of  the  Doctor ;  his  first  wife  was  a 
very  superior  woman,  proud,  high-spirited,  and  of  unusual 
culture  and  intelligence  ;  the  daughters  of  the  family  were 
noted  for  their  great  beauty  and  cultivation  ;  the  last  sur- 
vivor of  them,  Mrs.  Blood,  was  considered  a  beauty  even 
when  nearly  eighty ;  the  death  of  the  eldest  son,  just  as  he 
was  preparing  to  enter  Harvard,  was  a  great  blow  to  his 
parents,  and  one  from  which  they  never  fully  recovered ;

descended  from  some  of  the  best  Pilgrim  stock,  his  life 
was  consistent  in  the  integrity,  the  almost  chivalrous  faith- 
fulness, in  the  care  of  the  interests  of  others  confided  to  his 
charge,  in  the  gentlemanly  dignity  of  his  bearing,  and  the 
kindness  of  his  heart,  manifested,  not  only  in  his  inter- 
course with  other  men  but  in  his  treatment  of  the  lower 
animals ;  although  misfortune  and  want  of  success  had 
been  in  no  small  degree  his  lot,  his  unvarying  cheerfulness 
and  patience  were  marked  characteristics,  and  might  well

due  the  comfort  of  home  in  his  later  years ;  it  is  sad  to  the

"  Dr.  Charles  Galusha  Pomeroy's  ancestors  were  all  from  and 
among  the  first  Pilgrim  Puritan  settlers  of  kin  and  kinsmen — kin 
whose  descendants  became  eminent,  distinguished  divines,  physi- 
cians, men  of  law  and  letters,  from  whom  he  no  doubt  inherited 
his  youthful  wisdom  and  decided  characteristics ;  to  prepare  himseK 
at  an  unusually  early  age  for  a  professional  life,  his  education  was 
obtained  at  the  Canandaigua  and  Pochester  city  academies ;  he  read 
medicine  with  Dr.  James  Post  of  Canandaigua  and  remained  with 
him  three  years,  and  with  untiring  energy  and  faithfuhiess  in  the 
performance  of  all  duties  his  diligence  was  rewarded  and  his  boy- 
hood's ambition  crowned  with  success,  when,  at  the  age  of  nine- 
teen, he  received  his  licentiate  to  practice  medicine  and  surgery, 
commencing  at  once  in  a  small  village  in  Monroe  County ;  during 
the  summer  of  that  year  he  formed  the  acquaintance  and  friendship 
of  the  most  prominent  physician  of  Wayne  County  (twenty  years 
his  elder),  Dr.  Alexander  Mclntyre,  who  located  in  Palmyra,  N.  Y., 
1800 ;  '  a  surgeon  in  the  war  of  1812,  he  accompanied  Gen.  Swift 
to  the  frontier,  was  at  the  battle  of  Lundy's  Lane,  and  at  the  sur- 
render of  Fort  Erie  he  was  with  Gen.  Swift  when  he  fell.' 

From  this  friendship  a  partnership  was  estabhshed  in  the  autumn 
of  the  first  year  of  his  practice,  and  an  attachment  formed  which 
continued  the  residue  of  their  lives ;  the  time  passed  with  Dr. 
Mclntyre  was  of  great  service  to  him,  as  Dr.  Mclntyre  had  a  large 
surgical  practice ;  but  the  '  phoenix-like '  spirit  of  the  young  physi- 
cian longed  to  attain  those  heights  which  his  honored  senior  had 
reached ;  with  renewed  energy,  practice  and  skill  he  again  located 
(alone),  in  1837,  in  a  small  village  in  Wayne  County  (Fairville),  con- 
veniently near  the  larger  villages  of  Palmyra  and  Newark ;  he 
there  founded  the  nucleus  of  a  reputation  which  eventually  made 
his  name  famihar  to  all,  as  the  most  prominent  physician  and  sur- 
geon in  the  county ;  having  a  most  pleasing  address  and  courteous 
manner,  although  strong  and  decided  in  his  convictions  of  right  and

honor  always,  his  friends  were  legion,  and  in  1845,  feeling  the  need 
of  a  still  wider  field  for  his  professional  work,  he  again  and  for  the 
last  time  made  a  change,  locating  in  Newark,  IS".  Y.,  where  he  had 
formed  intimate  and  firm  friendships  which  death  alone  severed ; 
the  winter  of  1850  he  passed  in  Philadelphia,  attending  lectures  at 
the  Jefferson  Medical  College,  where  he  had  conferred  upon  him 
an  '  ad  eundem  degree.' 

It  is  conceded  that  he  stood  in  the  front  rank  of  his  profession  in 
Central  New  York,  and  at  its  head  in  the  county ;  the  Wayne 
County  Medical  Society  is  indebted  to  him  for  its  reorganization  and 
revivification  after  the  death  of  its  former  medical  giants,  Dr.  Gain 
Robinson,  its  founder,  and  his  nephew.  Dr.  Alexander  Mclntyre ; 
Dr.  Pomeroy  reorganized  the  society,  revised  the  by-laws  in  1860, 
and  was  repeatedly  elected  its  president ;  the  honor  and  purity  of 
the  society  was  his  chief  desire ;  his  was  the  toning  element  to 
make  its  meetings  interesting,  to  encourage  its  members  to  ever 
remain  students  of  thought,  research,  culture  and  refinement,  which 
many  papers,  addresses,  important  cases  cited,  delivered  and  dis- 
cussed before  them,  testify  to  his  depth  of  thought  and  feeling  for 
its  prosperity,  and  his  example  was  ever  one  showing  his  high 
regard  for  the  honor  and  dignity  of  his  beloved  profession ;  the 
same  element  was  observed  in  his  consultations ;  if  he  differed  with 
any  one  he  was  kind  and  conciliatory. 

He  occupied  an  honorable  position  in  many  of  our  most  promi- 
nent medical  associations,  both  State  and  National ;  he  was  a  perma- 
nent member  of  the  American  Medical  Association,  a  permanent 
member  of  the  Medical  Society  of  the  State  of  New  York,  Fellow 
and  one  of  the  founders  of  the  New  York  State  Medical  Associa- 
tion, and  the  President  of  the  Medical  Association  of  Central  New 
York,  before  which,  at  its  semi-annual  meeting  and  its  twenty-first 
anniversary,  1888,  held  in  the  city  of  Rochester,  N.  Y.,  the  Presi- 
dent delivered  an  earnest  address ;  referring  to  its  organization, 
he  said  that  the  second  regular  paper  was  read  by  C.  G.  Pomeroy 
of  Wayne  County,  its  third  President,  the  subject  '  sulphites ;'  the 
paper  was,  by  vote,  requested  for  publication  ;  in  surgical  knowledge 
Dr.  Pomeroy  possessed  more  than  ordinary  talent  and  skill ;  his 
surgical  consultations  were,  of  later  years,  with  the  late  Dr.  Henry 
B.  Sands,  for  whom  he  had  a  warm  personal  friendship ;  during 
the  war  of  the  rebellion  he  was  commissioned  as  surgeon  of  the 
United  States  volunteers,  but  was  unable  to  accept,  although,  like 
his  school-mate,  Stephen  A,  Douglas,  he  was  a  strong  supporter  of 
the  Government  during  the  rebellion. 


JOHN  WHITMAN   OF   WEYMOUTH.  1029 

His  strong  force  of  character  could  not  be  expected  to  be  free 
from  decided  political  convictions ;  lie  was  a  member  of  the  Demo- 
cratic party,  and  one  of  its  prominent  defenders  in  the  county; 
although  he  could  have  held  prominent  positions,  his  influence  and 
advice  for  the  good  of  his  party  alone  interested  him ;  his  pro- 
fession and  his  duties  to  it  were  always  first  and  foremost  in  his 
mind,  and  nothing  was  allowed  to  waive  them  aside ;  the  eminence 
to  which  he  arose  and  was  acknowledged  and  honored  in  the 
science  and  practice  of  medicine  and  surgery  were  enough  for 
him,  won  by  a  life-time  of  self-sacrifice  and  devotion  in  his 
Master's  service  ('  healing  the  sick '),  to  whom  he  ever  felt  most 
humble,  giving  all  honor  to  Him  in  whose  hands  he  was  only  the 
means ;  as  a  citizen  he  was  public-spirited,  always  deeply  interested 
in  whatever  tended  to  advance  the  interests  of  his  own  village ;  he 
was  a  true  friend  to  the  poor,  both  in  word  and  deed;  he  was 
trustee,  treasurer  and  medical  adviser  of  the  New  York  State 
Custodial  Asylum  for  feeble-minded  women,  located  in  Newark, 
K  Y."

1860,  Hon.   Samuel  Beckwith,  son  of  Dr.  Alexander  and  Anne 
(Beckwith)  Mclntyre  ;  a  lawyer ;  residence,  Palmyra,  N.  Y. ;  2  c. 

"Hon.  Samuel  Beckwith  Mclntyre  recruited  and  commanded 
Co.  A,  of  the  111th  Regiment,  N.  Y.  Y.,  the  first  company  in  the 
first  regiment  organized  under  the  call  of  President  Lincoln  for 
300,000  men,  July,  1862 ;  immediately  after  being  mustered  into 
service  in  September,  the  regiment  was  ordered  to  Harper's  Ferry, 
commanded  by  Gen.  Miles  ;  on  Maryland  Heights  they  engaged  in 
battle  with  Kershaw's  S.  C.  Brigade,  supported  by  Barksdale's  Miss. 
Brigade,  until  ordered  to  retire ;  the  regiment,  with  others,  was 
surrendered  (sold  out)  by  Miles ;  they  were  paroled,  sent  to  Chicago, 
exchanged,  re-armed,  then  assigned  to  the  Army  of  the  Potomac  as 
part  of  the  3d  Brigade,  3d  Division,  2d  Army  Corps,  Gen.  Alex. 
Hays  commanding ;  this  brigade  participated  in  all  the  battles  of 
the  Army  of  the  Potomac  until  the  close  of  the  war,  1865 ;  it 
arrived  at  Gettysburg  early  in  the  morning  of  the  second  day,  at 
8  A.  M.,  and  formed  on  the  crest  of  the  ridge  south  of  Zegler's  grove 
and  '  Bryan '  house  ;  Gen.  Hancock,  in  his  ofiicial  report,  says  :  '  the 
3d  Brigade,  3d  Division,  commanded  by  Col.  Sheird  (who  was 
killed),  made  a  gallant  advance  on  the  enemy's  batteries,  in  which 
the  111th  N.  Y.  Yols.,  under  Col.  McDugall,  bore  a  distinguished 
part ;  it  lost  more  than  one-half  of  its  numbers ;'  Gen.  Hays,  in  his 


1030  THE    DESCENDANTS    OF 

official  report,  says  '  that  the  history  of  this  brigade's  operations  is 
written  in  blood.' 

In  a  report  made  by  an  officer  of  Co.  A,  111th  Regiment,  he 
states  :  '  our  regiment  foots  np  a  total  of  218  killed — more  than  any 
other  regiment  in  the  army ;  among  the  many  singular  incidents 
of  the  fight  it  happened  that  among  those  opposed  to  us  on  the 
second  day  we  fought  was  the  regiment  tliat  entered  Harper's  Ferry 
after  we  were  sold  out  last  fall  (1862) ;  this  regiment  was  cut  to 
pieces,  its  commander,  Gen,  Barksdale,  was  killed,  and  we  captured 
their  battle-flag  upon  which  they  had  inscribed  "  Harper's  Ferry," 
and  also  some  of  the  very  muskets  they  had  taken  from  us ;  Har- 
per's Ferry  was  redeemed ;  Col.  McDugall  was  wounded,  after- 
wards receiving  the  promotion  of  General ;  Capt.  Mclntyre  received 
papers  for  a  Major's  commission,  but  having  received  a  staff  appoint- 
ment on  Morris  Island,  accepted  and  was  among  those  who  were  the 
first  to  enter  Charleston  upon  its  surrender,  returning  home  at  the 
close  of  the  war,  1865.' "

Christ  my  only  Lord  and  Saviour  for  eternal  life.  Do  make  this  my  last 
Will  and  Testament  as  it  foUoweth.  That  is,  after  all  my  Lawful  Debts 
duely  and  truely  paid  and  Funeral  Expenses  discharged,  My  will  is,  and  I 
give  unto  my  Eldest  Son  Thomas  Whitman  all  that  Land  Meadow  and

AND  HIS  THREE  WIVES. 

Hark  from  the  tomb  a  doleful  sound  my 

Ears  attend  the  cry. 
Ye  living  men  come  view  the  ground 

Where  you  must  shortly  lie. 

Princes,  this  clay  must  be  your 

Bed  in  spite  of  all  your  towers, 
The  tall,  the  wise,  the  Reverend  Head, 

Must  be  as  low  as  ours. 

The  remains  of  John  Whitman,  Esq.,  are  here  deposited.  He  descended 
of  an  ancient  and  venerable  family  at  Hull,  where  he  was  born  in  the  year

1688,  and  died  at  Stow,  where  he  had  resided  near  seventy  years,  on  the  3rd 
Day  of  August,  A.  D.  1772. 

His  Meekness  and  Piety  towards  God,  and  his  Benevolence  and  Hospitality 
towards  Men,  made  him  beloved  whilst  living  and  lamented  after  Death. 
The  sweet  remembrance  of  the  Just 
Shall  Flourish  when  they  sleep  in  dust ; 
Why  should  we  tremble  to  convey  their  bodies  to  the  Tomb, 
There  the  dear  Flesh  of  Jesus  lay  and  left  a  sweet  perfume. 
The  Grave  of  his  Saints  he  blessed 

And  softened  every  Bed  ; 
Where  should  the  dying  members  rest 
But  w^ith  the  dying  Head. 

Hear  what  the  voice  from  Heaven  Proclaims 

For  all  the  pious  dead  ; 
Sweet  is  the  Saviour  of  their  names, 

And  soft  their  sleeping  Bed. 
Thence  he  arose,  ascending  High, 

And  shew'd  our  Feet  the  way 
Up  to  the  Lord  our  Flesh  shall  fly 

At  the  Great  arising  Day. 
Then  let  the  last  loud  Trumpet  sound. 

And  bid  our  Kindred  rise  ; 
Awake,  ye  Nations,  under  Ground, 

Ye  Saints  ascend  the  Skies. 
The  life  in  Jesus  and  are  blessed, 

How  kind  their  Slumbers  are. 
From  Sufferings  and  from  sins  released, 

And  freed  from  every  Snare  ; 
Far  from  the  world  of  Toil  and  Strife 

They're  present  with  the  Lord, 
The  labours  of  their  Mortal  Life 

End  in  a  Large  reward.

Solomon  Whitman.        [Seal.] 

Signed,  sealed,  pronounced  and  declared  by  s''  Solomon  Whitman  to  be 
his  last  Will  &  testament,  in  presence  of 

Reuben  L.  Norton,  Erastus  Hart,  Cele  Weston. 

Approved  by  the  Judge  of  Probate,  Oct.  6th,  1803. 


During  the  American  Revolution,  an  American  craft  or  privateer  sailed 
up  the  Bay  of  Fundy  into  Minas  Basin  seeking  whom  she  might  devour, 
when  Capt.  William  Bishop  got  together  hastily  a  crew  of  men  in  a  few 
hours,  and  put  out  to  give  fight  to  the  enemy  ;  his  vessel  was  faulty,  crew 
undisciplined,  and  they  were  captured  by  the  privateer  and  placed  in  irons 
in  the  hold.  Capt.  William  succeeded  in  getting  out  of  his  irons  and  releasing 
his  men  ;  he  then  conceived  the  idea  of  capturing  the  crew  of  the  privateer, 
being  physically  a  giant  in  strength  ;  he  went  on  deck,  followed  by  his  crew 
armed  with  whatever  they  could  get,  whereupon  Capt.  William  grappled 
with  the  guard,  fell  down  on  the  deck  holding  the  man  over  him,  and  when 
the  crew  of  the  vessel  tried  to  bayonet  him  he  would  shield  himself  with  the 
guard,  whom  he  would  move  from  side  to  side,  and  thereby  protect  himself 
from  their  murderous  assaults ;  the  struggle  was  short ;  the  crew  of  the 
privateer  being  taken  completely  by  surprise  were  soon  captives,  and  Capt. 
Bishop  and  his  crew  had  control,  shortly,  of  the  vessel,  which  they  brought 
into  port  near  where  Wolf ville,  N.  S. ,  now  is,  and  the  sword  worn  by  him 
on  that  occasion  is  now  in  the  family.     (See  next  page,  1056.)
